Mary was last seen in Santa Cruz, California on October 20, 1954. She lived with her family in the 5000 block of Frederick Street at the time. Her husband, George Hudgins, said they had an argument that evening and he left the house, when when he returned, she was gone and their two children were home alone. He said she took $100 with her and left a note saying, “You can go on alone.” Mary’s parents lived in Canada at the time of her disappearance, and George was afraid she would take their two children and go to Canada to be with her parents. There has been no indication of her whereabouts since 1954 and her case remains unsolved.
