Appeal for assistance to find missing Artarmon
woman
Police are appealing for public assistance to locate an Artarmon woman who has been missing since 1976. Kathleen Marie Aitken was last seen by family members at her Artarmon unit at the corner of Palmer Street and Pacific Highway during the summer of 1976. At about that time, she failed to keep a regular appointment with her sister and has not been seen since. At the time of her disappearance she was aged about 27. Around 1986, Ms Aitken contacted a family member and told the relative she now had three children - a 12-year-old daughter named Rachel, and two sons. One boy was named Luke, while the other was named either Matthew or Mark. At that time, the boys were believed to be 10 and 9 years of age. Ms Aitken was an aspiring model and was also known by the surnames of Tunks, Ross and Finnis.
