Stephanie Pelfrey, born Stephanie Sewards, was 37 when she was last seen in Chillicothe, Ohio, on January 10, 1974. She was five feet eight inches, with brown hair and green eyes, and was known to be wearing a gold wedding band when she disappeared. At the time she lived on Route 1 and Reservation Circle.

There is little information about her movements the day she vanished. No report was filed for more than a year; she was not reported missing until September 1975, and her husband filed for divorce the same period citing willful absence. Her family continued to list her as missing decades later, and the Ross County Sheriff’s Office currently shows the case as active.

Stephanie has never been heard from again and is presumed deceased, though no definitive evidence has been made public. Did anyone in Chillicothe or the surrounding area have contact with Stephanie around January 1974 or notice her after that date?
