James Cary Smith was 22 when he disappeared from his Harvey, Louisiana, home on the morning of September 6, 1991. He was last seen at his Friendship Drive residence wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans; he was 5 feet 8 inches tall, about 160 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. His plan that day was routine — walk two blocks to a bus stop and take a bus to the University of New Orleans — but he never arrived and was not seen or heard from again after leaving the house that Friday morning.

The Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office continues to list the case as Missing. Little else is publicly known about his movements after he left home; the last confirmed sighting is that walk out the front door. If anyone knew James, saw him on September 6, 1991, or has information about his intended trip to New Orleans, please share what you remember.
