Circumstances of Disappearance: |
Unknown. Maria, who was a student nurse at Dudley Road Hospital in Birmingham, went missing in 1968. She was last seen sometime between February and June 1968. It was assumed at the time she had just run away from the Old Hulme nurses training centre which is where she lived while working at the hospital, which is now known as City Hospital. Maria lived in Kidderminster with her family before she moved to Birmingham to work. No trace of her has previously been found. The case was reopened in 2009 when a letter from Maria to her mother was discovered, which was dated February 28, 1968. The letter discussed her life in Birmingham and mentioned several friends including “Sue” and “Evelyn”, who police believe may also have been cadet nurses. Two new age-progressed images have now been produced which show how she may have looked aged 17 years old and aged 59 years old. Her case remains unsolved. |
