Disappearance of Mary Flanagan

 


On December 31, 1959, 16-year-old Mary Flanagan overslept but told her parents she was going to work that afternoon. She would leave her home in Newham, England at lunchtime. She was never seen again after this. She was supposed to go to a New Year's Eve party her work was having.

Mary's family contacted her workplace, a local firm, to see if she had worked that day. It had turned out that even though Mary was pretending to leave each morning for work she was had not been there for 2 weeks.  They had thought Mary was sick and that was why she wasn't showing up.

Her family thinks it's possible that she eloped with a possible fiance. They think that he may have been an Irish laborer who worked with the merchant Navy. His name was Tom with possible last names McGinty, McEntee, or McGuiness this man could not be located in the Merchant Navy though.

The night before the 31st Mary mentioned she was going to break up with her boyfriend. They had an argument over him lying to her. He had told her that he lived with a landlady when in fact it was his mother. 

It's also possible that Mary was pregnant at the time and disappeared because of it. She was a Catholic and nay not know how to tell her family. 

Mary is a white female and was 16-years-old at the time. She's 165 cm or 5'4". She has brown wavy hair and hazel eyes. She has an olive complexion.
