Shirley Ann McNair, 36, vanished from her St. Pauls, North Carolina, home on March 27, 1994. She told her mother she’d be right back, left in her blue 1987 Dodge, and never returned. She was a mother to a nine-year-old son. At the time she was described as a Black female, 5 feet 3 inches, 135 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes, pierced ears and a scar on her abdomen. When she left she wore a red dress shirt and red dress pants, black dress shoes, a yellow gold diamond solitaire ring on her pinky, and carried a silver keychain with the letter S.

The next day the Dodge was found abandoned in the Oak Ridge club parking lot in nearby Lumberton. The car contained Shirley’s eyeglasses, purse and money; investigators reported no signs of foul play in the vehicle. Over the years the case has remained unsolved. Truck driver Sean Patrick Goble, convicted of murdering three women, has been named as a possible suspect but has not been charged in Shirley’s disappearance. The Robeson County Sheriff’s Office retains the case file.

If anyone knew Shirley, saw her car that week, or has information that could help her family, please come forward.
