Donald John Young was 23 when he was last seen on July 11, 1979, in Lone Rock, Wisconsin. He lived on a farm on Strang Hollow Road in the Township of Bear Creek with his brother. Described as 6 feet to 6 feet 1 inch and about 190 pounds, he had curly blond or strawberry blond hair, hazel eyes, and wore glasses. Family reports say he bore a facial scar possibly from a rock while cutting hay and a scar on his hand from a pitchfork accident.

Although a family member suggested Donald might have been planning to go to California, investigators found his wallet, clothing, and vehicle at the residence, items normally taken on a long trip. The disappearance was reported to the Sauk County Sheriff’s Office on August 9, 1979, and the case remains open. No confirmed sightings or communications have been reported since July 11, 1979.

Did anyone in the area at that time remember seeing Donald or notice unusual activity around the farm in July 1979?
