Floradean Pat Walker was 25 when she vanished from Hext, Menard County, Texas. She was reported last seen leaving a residence in Hext on January 1, 1951, about 5:40 p.m., though some records note uncertainty and list the last contact as January 1. Described as about 5 feet 7 inches and 135 pounds with red or auburn hair, green eyes and left-handed, she had married Wesley E. Walker in March 1950 and is believed to have been born Floradean Hawes in Neosho, Missouri around 1925‑1926.

Family recollection places her living with Wesley’s mother, Minnie Walker, in Hext before she disappeared; Wesley was reportedly serving overseas in the Air Force at the time.

NamUs lists her as case MP8609 and there have been no confirmed sightings, contact or verified leads after January 1, 1951. Does anyone have memories, family information or archival material that could shed light on Floradean’s whereabouts after that date?
