Winifred Jane Smith, known as Jane, was a 20-year-old Laurentian University student last seen in Sudbury, Ontario, on August 9, 1975. She had spent the summer in Sudbury to be near friends and her boyfriend and worked at a local Canadian Tire. Jane returned to her basement apartment on Charlotte Street after a shift and was seen by her roommate at about 2:00 a.m.; by 7:30 a.m. she was gone. Her personal effects were left behind and there were no signs of a struggle or that she had packed to leave.

Described as 5 feet 4 inches and about 110–115 pounds with reddish-brown hair, blue eyes, a small round scar between her eyebrows and some gold teeth, she was last seen wearing a blue zippered sweatshirt with a pouch and hood, Wrangler blue jeans, red Cougar running shoes and carrying a large black shoulder bag. Investigators say foul play cannot be ruled out and her bank account was never accessed. The Greater Sudbury Police Service still has the case open and the family continues to seek answers.

If anyone knew Jane, lived near Charlotte Street in 1975, or has information about her last movements, please share what you know.
