On August 2nd, 1969, this unidentified man, who appears to be
approximately 18 to 25 years of age and may have Hispanic roots
or origins, left from New York City by Napierville Junction RR
train no. 9 and arrived in Canada at Montreal, Quebec. Prior to
leaving New York, he had reported to the draft board on Broadway
and 52nd and they had directed him to report to Fort Dix, New
Jersey. That is when he decided to flee to Canada. On August
5th, 1969, he attempted to return to the U.S. when the U.S.
Immigration at Champlain, New York State refused him re-entry
because he was unable to convince him he was born and raised in
New York City. He claims he was born at home with birth never
registered with the state. Sent back to Canada, he subsequently
settled in the Toronto, Ontario, Canada area and has remained
since while attempts to verify / establish his true identity and
verify his New York City birthplace continue. We know this
subject was present in New York City for many years well
documented from at least 1960 to 1969, and claims he was born in
Manhattan where he spent his youth. Prior to leaving New York,
he claims he spent a lot of time in the area of 3rd Avenue and
47th or 48th Street and may have attended the Greek Orthodox
Church on 24th street between 8th and 9th Avenues. We have very
strong reason to believe he had and likely still has family in
the U.S. and possibly in the New York City area where he claimed
to have lived with his parents and sibling(s) prior to August
1969. His father may have been a seaman. This Agency is seeking
the aid of the public in assisting us to positively establish
his true identity and nationality and locate his family members,
ideally.

Circumstances of Discovery
This unidentified living subject left New York on August 2, 1969
on a train to Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
He attempted to return to the United States on August 5, but was
denied re-entry due to the fact that he was unable to verify he
was born and raised in New York City.
The young man claimed to have been born in Manhatten, at home,
and his birth was never recorded with the state. It has been
verified that he lived in New York City from at least 1960 to
1969.
He also stated he grew up in Manhatten and spent a significant
amount of time 3rd Avenue and 47th or 48th Street. He possibly
went to the Greek Orthodox Church on 24th street between 8th and
9th Avenues.
It is believed he still has family living in the country,
perhaps still in New York. The man claimed to have lived with
his parents, his father possibly being a seaman, and one or more
sibling.
He has lived in Toronto, Ontario since he was unable to return
to the United States.
