Michael Arthur Overman was 35 when he was last known to have contact on June 1, 1978, in the Duck Island area tied to Frenchboro in Hancock County, Maine. He is described as White, brown hair and brown eyes, between 6 feet 3 inches and 6 feet 5 inches tall, about 200 pounds, and was usually known as Mike.

Family members conducted extensive searches at the time but Michael was never found. His case is listed in NamUs as Missing Person MP117236 and the Maine State Police are identified as the investigating agency; family reference DNA from a brother has been processed by the Maine State Police Crime Laboratory. Beyond those fragments—appearance, last known area, family searches and a later NamUs entry—there are no public recovery circumstances or additional identifying details.

Did anyone in the Duck Island or Frenchboro area remember seeing Mike around late May or early June 1978, or have information about his hiking routes or where he might have gone?
