Nancy Carole Tyler

Nancy Carole Tyler (April 9, 1939–May 9, 1965) was a personal secretary to Bobby Baker. Tyler was reported to be a prominent figure in a political scandal involving Baker.

Biography Tyler won a local beauty pageant in Loudon County, Tennessee prior to attending Middle Tennessee State. During her senior year, she went to Washington, D.C. to seek employment and was hired by Baker. On the purchasing documents, Baker indicated the intended occupants as "M. A. Martin, no relation, and N. C. Tyler, a cousin." Baker flew from Washington, D.C. that night and went out in one of the search boats the following day. Divers recovered the wreckage of the plane with the bodies of Tyler and the pilot, Robert H. Davis, the following day under 23 feet of water not far from Baker's motel.
