MI MI - Tammy Clements, 14, Niles, 1 Jan 1980

MAY 2, 2023

Tammy Sue Clements lived with her mother and stepfather in Niles, Michigan, until she was about 14 years old. She later moved to Lincoln, Nebraska, with her father, stepmother, and two half-brothers, officials said.

When she turned 15, the father and stepmother told Clements that they were moving back to Niles, so she could go back to living with her mother and stepfather. Clements got upset, and she refused to go with them, according to the Doe Network.

The father, stepmother, and half-brothers moved in May 1981 and allowed Clements to stay in Lincoln. The last known contact with Clements was on May 2, 1981 -- exactly 42 years ago.

Circumstances of Disappearance
Clements lived with her biological mother and stepfather in Niles, Michigan until she was approximately 14 years old. She then went to live with her biological father and stepmother who also lived in Niles. Clements, her father, stepmother and two half brothers moved to Lincoln, Nebraska some time in 1979-1980, the exact date is unknown.

When Clements was 15, her father and stepmother said they were moving back to Niles, Michigan and Clements could go back to live with her mother and stepfather. This upset Clements and she refused to go with them. In the last conversation with her biological mother (who believes this conversation took place shortly after Tammy turned 15 in the summer of 1980), Tammy told her she had met some friends in Nebraska and was going to travel to California with them.

Tammy's father, stepmother, and two young half brothers moved from Nebraska shortly thereafter, and allowed Clements to stay behind in Lincoln. This was the last known contact Clements has ever had with anyone.

Clements has never obtained a driver's license, a state identification card or used her social security number.
