Moranbah is a small town in Queensland, Australia. It appears her children live in Australia and reported her missing there in 1985. Very strange case, was Shirley an Australian citizen too? why was she in Dallas in 1985?

I was wondering some of the same things. Unfortunately, there’s not much information on that Facebook page either.

According to ancestry, she voted in Farrer (an Australian electoral division in New South Wales.), Australia in 1980, so I assume she lived there at some point.
