What a tiny woman; no match for a murderous bully if she did indeed meet with foul play.
I know blonde hair appears darker in photographs but her picture makes her look like a brunette.

Bumping for Georgia as we approach the 48th anniversary of her disappearance.
 
The title needs to be changed to Lake Jackson not Johnson.

Are there any other articles regarding her disappearance?
 
THE DISAPPEARANCE
The last people to see Georgia when she got off of work that morning were David and a friend or possible boyfriend named Charles Corsentino, both of whom are deceased, Lobpries said.

According to original case files and statements from the two men, the three of them had a discussion outside the Holiday Inn which ended with Georgia walking toward her apartment directly behind the hotel, the investigator said.

At about 9:30 a.m. Aug. 6, 1972, David told investigators he went to Georgia’s apartment to check on her, but she didn’t answer the door and he didn’t have his key, so he went to the apartment manager’s office to be let in, then didn’t find Georgia there, Lobpries said.

Apartment workers later told investigators they didn’t remember David asking for a key that morning, Lobpries said.
When Corsentino got off work that afternoon, he told investigators he went to check on Georgia and found David sleeping in her apartment, Lobpries said.

Corsentino checked all the places he thought Georgia might be, Lobpries said, later telling investigators that David acted casual and said Georgia had run off before.
Georgia’s father, Bert Smith, and his wife reported her missing to the sheriff’s office Aug. 11, he said.

Evidence found in Georgia’s apartment included a red spot on the wall that dripped down to the baseboard, according to the case files.
There was an unusual substance, possibly cotton and matches, in the garbage disposal, Lobpries said, and no evidence that she left town by choice.

“There’s no way she would’ve left her kids,” Owens said.
David hired a lawyer a couple of months into the investigation and stopped talking to police, Lobpries said. Without a body or much evidence, it’s extremely difficult to make an arrest, Lobpries said.

On Oct. 13, 1972, Georgia’s 4-year-old daughter received a package in the mail which contained a box of gumballs, some costume jewelry and a 14-karat gold necklace with a locket, he said.
