Mary Jane Vangilder was born and raised in West Virginia. She married her ex-husband at 17 in 1929. The couple would go on and have 5 children before their separation in 1943. She moved to Plymouth, Ohio the same year. She would then take a job as a forklift operator at the Wilkins Army Force Depot. She would get to work by riding with coworkers.
She did not move with her children. She maintained contact through the mail and would send them letters, clothes, and war bonds. In 1945 the 33-year-old wrote the children asking for the war bonds back. The children sent her the war bonds. A few weeks later she would mail them her last war bond. She stopped all contact with them after that.
It isn't known when she disappeared in 1945, but she had filed for divorce on Feb. 14, 1945, and she was missing by November of 1945 when the divorce was finalized. She had quit her job in March.
