William Joseph Jamison, 33, disappeared in the late hours of a March night in 1981 after finishing a regular work shift. A decorated Army veteran and Temple University accounting graduate, he lived in the Colfax Manor Apartments on St. Georges Avenue in Roselle Park and worked for Haug Die Casting Co. in nearby Kenilworth. Friends and family described him as responsible and reliable, which made his sudden vanishing especially jarring.

He was last seen after leaving the St. George’s Diner in Linden around 1:30 a.m., driving his company car, a dark blue 1981 Ford LTD station wagon with New Jersey plate 861-PKY. Jamison’s clothing that night was reported as a dark brown suede coat, dress shirt, dress slacks, and a watch. He is five feet nine inches, about 220 pounds, with dark brown hair, green eyes, and two scars, one under his chin and one on his right ear. Neither he nor the vehicle has ever been found.

The Roselle Park Police Department opened and has kept an active investigation into the disappearance. Despite extensive efforts by investigators and the family, including a sizable reward, the circumstances of what happened after he left the diner remain unknown. If anyone knew William, saw that Ford LTD after that night, or has information that could help, please come forward.
