Peggy Ann Reed was 15 when she was last seen on March 28, 1974, in Santa Rosa, California. Reports place her in the Guerneville Road and Coddingtown Mall area in Sonoma County; she may have been hitchhiking. At the time she disappeared she wore a navy blue men’s windbreaker, a blue shirt with a floral design, brown dress slacks and tan heels, carried a small brown leather shoulder purse and sometimes wore gold metal–framed glasses.

Her case is classified as endangered missing and remains active with the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Department. Investigators have noted speculation about a possible connection to the Santa Rosa Hitchhiker Murders, but no definitive link has been established. Peggy has never been heard from again and her file remains listed in national missing persons databases such as NamUs.

Did anyone in Sonoma County in late March 1974 see Peggy near Guerneville Road or Coddingtown Mall, or remember a teen wearing that outfit?
