Dixie May Forrester, 31, vanished from Springfield, Missouri after dropping her six-year-old daughter at a cousin’s for babysitting on June 11, 1971. She planned to meet her ex-husband that day; that meeting never happened and family members never saw or heard from her again.

That evening her 1955 Chevrolet was found abandoned near Atlantic Street and Missouri Avenue, close to her ex-husband’s home. Dixie was described as a white female, brown hair, hazel eyes, 5 feet 5 inches, about 112 pounds, and wearing upper and lower dentures from a prior car accident. Her ex-husband was questioned and arrested during the investigation but later released for lack of evidence; he reportedly declined a polygraph and has since died.

No confirmed trace of Dixie’s whereabouts has been reported since June 11, 1971. Does anyone have memories, documents, or leads about Dixie’s last day or the area around Atlantic and Missouri Avenue in 1971?
