Kerry L. Tate was 25 when she was last seen in Walker, Livingston Parish, Louisiana, on August 10, 1981. Described as a Caucasian female about five feet four to five feet five inches tall and 110 to 120 pounds with brown hair, Kerry’s final movements and the circumstances of her disappearance are not known publicly.

Her case later was entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System, with the LSU FACES Laboratory listed as the primary investigating agency. Over the years the investigation has remained open but produces few leads. Amateur sleuths have noted a temporal and geographic proximity to an unidentified woman found in Morgan City in November 1981, but there has been no official confirmation of any link.

If anyone knew Kerry, remembers her in Walker in 1981, or has information that could help investigators, please come forward.
