Edward Nemanishen was 33 when he was last seen working a summer day in a remote part of Saskatchewan. On July 11, 1972, co-workers saw him at about 1:30 pm at a clearing site in the Alingly District, roughly 12 kilometres northwest of Spruce Home. He was described as slender, white, with brown hair, blue eyes and a small pea-sized white lump behind his right ear.

Edward was wearing dark green work pants and shirt, a dark green pullover sweater with a half zipper, and size 8 brown lace-up work boots. When a co-worker returned to the site at about 7:00 pm that evening Edward was gone; no one has seen or heard from him since. The site’s remoteness and the abrupt nature of his disappearance have left his family without answers.

The F Division RCMP Historical Case Unit lists the disappearance as active. Does anyone who worked or lived near the Alingly District in 1972 remember Edward or have information about that day?
