Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP43013) and 2 other sources
In the late spring of 2006, a 49-year-old woman named Cynthia Maria Jenkins was last seen by her family in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, a community she called home. The exact date of her last contact is recorded as June 20, 2006. At the time she went missing, Cynthia was described as a white female, standing at 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighing between 130 and 150 pounds. She had white hair, which she was known to sometimes dye brown or black, and hazel eyes. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance were, and remain, shrouded in uncertainty, leaving her loved ones with unanswered questions.

Cynthia's life before she vanished was known to be somewhat transient. She was known to reside within her vehicle, suggesting a life of mobility and perhaps instability. One of the few specific details about her habits was her known affinity for Ridley Creek State Park in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. This sprawling natural landscape may have been a place of solace or regular visits for her. The lack of detailed information regarding her activities or state of mind in the days leading up to her disappearance has made the investigation challenging for the Pennsylvania State Police, who are handling her case.

Years have passed since Cynthia Jenkins was last seen, and her case remains an active missing person investigation. Her family has endured a long and painful wait for answers. Despite the passage of time, the fundamental questions of what happened to Cynthia and where she might be remain unanswered. The investigation into her disappearance is a quiet but persistent effort to bring closure to a family left in limbo and to uncover the truth behind the vanishing of a woman from her familiar surroundings in Delaware County.
