Nancy Stewart Hranko Williams, 26 in early 1988 and sometimes known as Bobbie Jo, vanished after living in Sandy Springs, Georgia, with a man her family knew little about. She maintained ties to Powhatan Point, Ohio, and had a young daughter being raised by grandparents. Family described her lifestyle as high-risk — including drug use and hitchhiking — but say it would have been out of character for her to abandon her child.

Nancy told her mother she was afraid of the boyfriend and wanted to leave. He used multiple aliases, reported as Robert Mayhew, Bob or Tom Katz, and Bob or Tim Wilson. The last contact was a phone call in early 1988; in February the boyfriend placed a collect call to Nancy’s family saying she had left him and was returning to the Ohio Valley, but she never arrived and was never heard from again. Her sister filed a missing person report soon after.

There has been no activity on Nancy’s Social Security number since 1988. The Sandy Springs apartment where she lived has been demolished. DNA from relatives has been entered into national databases and investigators in Georgia and Ohio are involved. Did anyone in the Ohio Valley know Nancy, her boyfriend under any of those names, or see her around early 1988?
