Alexander Stuart James, known as Beau, was 36 when he was last seen in Bridge City, Texas, sometime in February 2022; the exact date is uncertain. A tree trimmer by trade, he was reportedly last seen by his roommate and may have been working in the front yard of his residence. At the time he disappeared he was believed to be wearing a forest green long-sleeved shirt, blue jeans and tan work boots, and was noted to have an orange climbing rope with him.

Alexander left behind his Texas identification card and other personal belongings, and he did not own a vehicle, so investigators say he either left on foot or accepted a ride. Family described a pattern of occasionally going off the grid for short periods, but his prolonged silence and lack of contact with his ex-wife and young son were highly uncharacteristic. The Bridge City Police Department entered the case into national missing-person databases and sought public assistance; the FBI has been involved in the search.

Few details or clear leads have emerged, leaving the family without answers. Did anyone in the Bridge City area see Alexander around the time he vanished or pick up a man matching his description?
