Iva Lorene Edwards was 42 when she vanished from Hialeah, Florida, on October 26, 1974. She was last seen leaving the Ranch House restaurant at 1:30 a.m. with her estranged husband, James T-Bone Edwards; witnesses reported them walking toward a nearby lounge and Iva was never seen again.

The couple had a history of domestic violence that had prompted Iva to leave James earlier that year. At the time of her disappearance she was living with her daughter and grandson, had started a new job and a new relationship. James later said he dropped Iva at her apartment and denied involvement, but he failed a polygraph test and some family members later claimed he bragged about killing her. He has been treated as a prime suspect but no charges were ever brought.

Foul play is strongly suspected and the case remains unsolved. Did anyone who knew Iva or the Edwards family have contact with her in late October 1974 or recall seeing her after October 26?
