On July 1, 1957, eight-year-old Leo Payash and his 47-year-old mother Cecilia were seen walking together down Red Lake Road in Red Lake, Ontario, a route that runs alongside the railway and was thought to be taking them toward a place called Morgan. Leo reportedly had a severe infection in his left eye, nearly swollen shut, and Cecilia was said to be carrying thirty dollars, apparently to pay for treatment. Those walking together on that stretch of road are the last confirmed sighting of the pair.

Cecilia was described as a small woman, four feet, eleven inches tall, thin, with black hair, brown eyes, and a hooked nose. Leo was about four feet tall, thin, with black hair and brown eyes. No trace of them was ever found after that day, and their fate remains unknown.

Are there anyone in the Red Lake or Morgan area with memories, family stories, or information about that day in 1957 that could help shed light on what happened?
