Janis Taylor Missing Person Case

Janis Taylor, a 15-year-old girl from Concord, New Hampshire, went missing on January 9, 1968. She was last seen waiting for a ride home from school but never made it back. Janis, a sophomore at Concord High School, had been living with her sister-in-law and nephew at the time. A man named Barry Bickford, who was romantically involved with her sister-in-law, was supposed to pick her up that day but claimed he couldn’t find her when he returned home. She has not been heard from since.

Prior to her disappearance, Janis had shared concerns about possible abuse involving her nephew. Her nephew tragically died a month after Janis vanished, and Bickford was convicted of manslaughter in his death. While there is speculation about a connection between the two events, no concrete evidence has surfaced linking Bickford to Janis's disappearance.

Janis was described as being 5 feet 3 inches tall, with long brown hair and brown eyes. She enjoyed horseback riding and participated in 4-H activities. Her case, which has remained unsolved for over five decades, is considered suspicious. The New Hampshire Cold Case Unit continues to investigate, and authorities are seeking any information related to her disappearance.
