Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Davis, her husband of fifteen years, and their two daughters moved from Utah to Chugiak, Alaska in the summer of 1974. Her husband asked for a divorce in August of that year. Davis was reportedly very upset about it and did not want a divorce. She was also unhappy with her life in Alaska. On August 30, 1974, Davis signed the divorce papers. She was granted custody of the couple's children, but she told relatives she planned to move to California, where she had lived before her marriAge at the time of disappearance: , and would leave the children with their father. At 7:00 p.m., she began weeping and left the family's trailer, leaving her husband and children at home watching television. They assumed she had gone down the road to use a pay phone; she had done so the night before and had been gone three hours. Davis did not have any money, identification or extra clothing with her when she disappeared. She never returned to her family's residence has never been heard from again. Her husband reported her missing the next day. He was initially considered a suspect in her disappearance, but he passed a lie detector test and is no longer under suspicion. Dogs repeatedly tracked Davis's scent from her trailer to the pay phone down the road, but they may have simply been following an old trail, as she walked that route frequently. Suicide was considered a possibility in her case. Davis's husband found a note she had written, apologizing to him for the failure of their marriAge at the time of disappearance: . The note did not insinuate suicide and it was undated. If she did in fact take her own life, her body has not been discovered, which is highly unusual. Authorities are still uncertain as to what happened to Davis, as little evidence is available in her case. Her family continues to search for her.
