Beverly D. Williams was a 57-year-old female last seen on April 9, 2019, in Kansas City, Missouri. Online case summaries describe her as a Black woman, 5 feet 2 inches tall and about 145 pounds, with graying black hair and brown eyes; her ears were pierced, and she may have used the last name Pelton. She was born on October 3, 1961, and by the time she disappeared she was in an age group often overlooked in public missing-person coverage, making the few known details of her case especially
important to preserve carefully and accurately.
The known timeline begins and narrows quickly around travel. Beverly reportedly purchased a Greyhound bus ticket from Kansas City to Denver, Colorado. That ticket was later redeemed, but the available reporting is careful about what that means: it could not be confirmed that Beverly herself boarded the bus, used the ticket, or arrived in Denver. That uncertainty sits at the center of the case. The ticket suggests a possible intended destination or planned movement, but the lack of confirmation leaves open the most critical question of whether Beverly actually made the trip at all.
After that point, the public trail becomes painfully thin. One source states that there were few details available and that Beverly had not been seen or heard from since the day she was last seen in Kansas City. The absence of further public information does not lessen the significance of the case; instead, it underscores how quickly a person’s life can become reduced to a handful of facts: a name, a date, a city, a physical description, and a bus ticket that may or may not have marked the direction she was headed. For those who knew Beverly, those facts would have represented a deeply personal and distressing uncertainty, not simply an entry in a database.
Beverly’s case has also been associated with NamUs number MP72901, and one online case profile notes that its information was retrieved from NamUs. The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s missing-person search page explains that its statewide missing-person information is derived from the National Crime Information Center through investigating agencies and that further details should be sought from the investigating agency, which reinforces the importance of official reporting channels in cases where public details are limited.
The investigating agency listed in public coverage is the Kansas City Police Department, with a contact number of 816-234-5136. In overview, Beverly D. Williams was a 57-year-old woman last seen in Kansas City, Missouri, on April 9, 2019; she was reportedly connected to a Greyhound ticket to Denver that was redeemed, but there is no confirmed public information showing that she personally used it or reached that destination. Her case remains defined by a narrow set of known facts, a major unanswered question about travel, and the hope that someone with even a small piece of information may help clarify what happened after she was last seen.Last Seen: Apr 9, 2019
