Lula Gillespie-Miller
In 1974, Lula Gillespie-Miller gave birth to a third child. She was 28 at the time and felt she too young for motherhood. So, she gave her kids to her parents and disappeared without a trace. 42 years later, an investigator found her living in Texas under a different name. She refused to meet with her family, but did give her contact information for her daughter, Tammy.
