Missing Person - Anthony Cantillon, missing since the 25/1/76

Anthony Cantillon

Anthony Cantillon was last seen by his sister Theresa on the 25th January 1976 at 4.45 in the evening.  He said he was heading out for a short walk. No one has seen him since.


Anthony was one of nine; he was living in the house he grew up in on Crecora Avenue, Limerick.  He was 30-years old, 5’8” medium build and had red hair.  He was described by his family as a quiet and shy man.  His identification, post office book and cheque book were left untouched. 


At the time of his disappearance the area around Rosbrien in Limerick where he used to walk often was extensively searched. National appeals on’Garda Patrol’ and the Sunday World failed to garner any information as to his whereabouts.


Investigators are releasing an age progression photograph which has been developed using photographs of Anthony Cantillon and his family to show how Anthony might look today. His niece Frances appeals for information on Crimecall.
