Matthew Ryan Ferguson was 27 when he was last seen at his Conway, South Carolina, residence on Highway 319 on the morning of March 1, 2019. Roommates discovered he was missing after finding his identification, electronic devices, and his vehicle left behind, a fact family and investigators found especially concerning. He had a serious medical condition that required attention, which heightened the urgency of the search.

His father, Robert Raynor, traveled from Charleston and spent weekends searching wooded areas and other places he thought might hold clues. Matthew is described as a Caucasian male, 6 feet tall, about 230 pounds, with brown thinning hair, blue eyes, a fire and ice tattoo on his upper right arm, and a Malzhar tattoo on his calf. The Horry County Police Department is investigating and asking the public for information.

If anyone knew Matthew’s routines, associations, or saw him around Conway in late February or early March 2019, please share what you know.
