Andrea Catherine Milne: Reading the Ketchikan Records
A brief last-seen account and two dated state reports require careful comparison.
Abstract
NamUs MP154939 lists August 24, 1975, as Andrea Catherine Milne’s Date of Last Contact in Ketchikan, Alaska.1
The Last-Seen Account
Its narrative names the Mecca Bar and a 1–2 a.m. window, without stating a calendar date or observer. It identifies Alaska State Troopers case AK26010341.1
The clock window and labeled date need a documented connection before they become one precisely dated observation.
The Quarterly Records
The state’s January–March 2026 report lists Andrea Milne in Ketchikan with August 24, 1975, in its Date Last Contacted column.2
The July–September report uses Milnen, retaining Ketchikan and that contact date. Its stated reporting cutoff is September 30, 2026.3
NamUs also records Milnen among her name variants.1
A spelling variation is a source-comparison question. It does not, by itself, establish differing witness accounts.

Later Agency Classification
The September-cutoff report assigns the circumstance category Not Suspicious. Its definitions associate that category with no indicated criminal activity or environmental factor.3
That dated category does not establish her fate or present whereabouts. It should not be read as a resolution.
Scope and Method
