Winnefred Jeanette Freeman, 20, disappeared from Portland, Oregon in the spring of 1968. She was last seen on May 8 getting into a blue and white 1964 Chevrolet with a man described as heavyset and middle-aged. Four days later the car was found abandoned in Portland, but Winnefred was not in it and was never seen again.

Winnefred was a Black woman, 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 115 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Very little is known about her life; a 1965 yearbook photo is one of the few images available. An official report of her disappearance was not filed until February 11, 2020, and her case remains open and cold with the Portland Police Bureau.

There are few documented leads from 1968 and many basic details about the events that followed the May sighting remain unknown. Did anyone in Portland in May 1968 see Winnefred or the man who got into the car with her? If so, please share what is remembered.
