Barbara Jane Shumac was 29 and a mother of four when she disappeared from her home on Kimball Road in Venango Township, Erie County, Pennsylvania, on December 16, 1982. That morning she had an argument with her husband and sometime between noon and 2:00 p.m. walked away from the house. She was last seen wearing blue jeans, a dark blue snowmobile suit, and blue and gray snow boots.

Her purse, keys, and car were left behind and a .22 caliber rifle from the home was also missing. A heavy snowstorm that day interfered with search efforts and likely erased tracks. In 1990 she was declared legally dead, but she remains listed as a missing person by the Pennsylvania State Police and the disappearance is unsolved.

If anyone knew Barbara, her movements that day, or has information that could help her family find answers, please come forward.
