Sheila has been missing for 44 years today.
Hello. This is my first ever post, I am Shelia’s 2nd cousin. She’s my mamaw’s niece, but my mamaw had 9 older siblings, so Sheila and my mamaw were only about 4 years apart in age. Next time I visit her, I plan on asking her if she remembers anything from around that time. It’s doubtful because she’s in her 70’s now, but you never know. If anybody has any articles or info that may help I’d appreciate it. This case didn’t seem to get big coverage like some cases do (which is understandable) she seemed to disappear in thin air with little evidence. But I know the area she disappeared from, if it looks similar to what it does now (which I’m inclined to believe it does) I’m curious if the police questioned any person who could have possibly seen anything? It’s literally just one little Main Street, Point Pleasant is the biggest town in the county but even today it sits at around 4,000 people. So I would assume somebody had to have seen SOMETHING.The Doe Network
