Claudia Smith, 63, was last seen in late spring 1976 in Stony Brook, a community in Suffolk County, New York. She is described as blind, with short gray or partially gray hair and blue eyes. On June 1 she was reportedly wearing a white dress with black flowers, sneakers, and a black hat.

Officials say Social Services had placed her at a center in Stony Brook and that she expressed a wish not to remain there. It is believed she may have left the facility and intended to travel to Fort Salonga by taxi, but there are no confirmed sightings and no activity on her Social Security number. Suffolk County police list her as an endangered missing person and the file remains open.

Very few personal details are public and investigators have not been able to establish what happened after she left the center. Does anyone have memories of Stony Brook or Fort Salonga in 1976 that could help clarify Claudia Smith’s movements that day?
