Audrey Backeberg

Audrey Jean Good Backeberg is an American formerly missing woman who went missing at age 20 on July 7, 1962, and resurfaced in 2025.

Background and disappearance Audrey Backeberg lived in Reedsburg, Wisconsin, but went missing at a bus stop in Indianapolis, Indiana, just days after a report was made to the local police that her husband was abusing her to the point of threatening her life. Backeberg was with someone who said that they were both hitchhiking where they took a Greyhound bus.

Reappearance Backeberg remained missing until 2025, when investigators located her alive and well in another state using information pulled from her sister's Ancestry.com profile. She chose not to disclose much information, but investigators say the aforementioned husband may or may not have been her reason for vanishing without a trace. She also chose not to give out her current location, and having since remarried and has two children, she also chose not to give out her current legal name.
