Circumstances of Disappearance

Lisa was last seen on November 1, 1974. Lisa was grounded at the time, and she waited until her mother left for work at 4:30 p.m. to walk to Prospect Street in the Rockville section of Vernon, two miles from her home, to hang and with a friend. At around 7:30 p.m., Lisa left her friend's house so she could beat her mom home from work. Lisa has not been seen since.

On the day of her disappearance, Lisa had written her mom a note saying she was "in love" with an older boy..."and maybe you think I'm a little girl, but I'm not". Investigators assumed Lisa had run away from home. Foul play is now suspected.

Lisa is the third person out of five to disappear from this area. Three, including Lisa, are still missing. It's unknown if their cases are related.
