Evelyn Laverne Mackey, 41, disappeared from Hernando County, Florida, on November 5, 1981. She was last seen by her teenage daughter after making breakfast that morning. Her husband, Mearl Mackey, later told the family Evelyn had gone to Ohio to care for a sick relative, but the family found no plan for such a trip and Evelyn never arrived at that destination.

Shortly after her disappearance, Mearl began emptying Evelyn’s bank account and gave inconsistent accounts of her whereabouts, which alarmed her family. Authorities were unable to make headway at the time and the case went cold. Evelyn’s body has not been recovered, and key questions remain about what happened that morning and the location of her remains.

If anyone knew Evelyn, saw her on November 5, 1981, or has information about the waters and roads near Hernando County in 1981, please come forward with what was known then.
