Debra Lynn Kidwell, 26, was last seen in Ventura, California, on May 4, 1979, with her three-year-old twin sons, Joshua and Jackson. Her husband, John Needham Kidwell, reported them missing on May 9, 1979, saying he had dropped Debra and the twins at Los Angeles International Airport, where they were allegedly flying to Pennsylvania to see Debra’s ill mother. Family contacted in Pennsylvania never received them, and neither Debra nor the children were ever heard from again.

At the time she disappeared Debra was wearing a peach-colored sweater, blue Levi’s jeans, and a gold wedding ring. She had a scar on her abdomen and suffered from an unspecified nervous condition. John Kidwell was considered a suspect; he was never charged and died in 2008. No trace of Debra or the boys has been found and the investigation remains open.

Does anyone have memories, records, or information about Debra, Joshua, or Jackson that could help bring answers to the family?
