Anna Lee Manning was 23 when she was last seen in Junction City, Kentucky, on November 19, 1992. Her aunt Elsie Williams saw her on North Third Street outside Chinn’s Jewelry Shop and heard Anna call out that she had something to tell her; that brief moment became the last confirmed sighting. Anna is described as red or auburn haired, blue eyed, about 5 feet tall and 108 pounds. She was reportedly wearing blue jeans, a shirt or blouse of unknown style, and tennis shoes.

Anna married Anthony Blaine Manning in 1985; the couple later separated. Anna’s disappearance was not reported to police until February 25, 1994. Investigators revisited a property on Spring Valley Road in Danville several times over the years.

In May 2026 authorities announced indictments charging Anthony Blaine Manning with murder, tampering with physical evidence, and abuse of a corpse, and charged his mother, Barbara Ann Manning, with complicity-related offenses. Investigators then located human remains on a Boyle County property; the remains were to be sent for forensic analysis and had not been officially identified. Does anyone have information about Anna, her movements in 1992, or the Spring Valley Road property?
