Nancy Sue Wiesnies was 58 years old when she was reported missing from Las Vegas, Nevada, with her date of last contact listed as January 1, 2004. Public missing-person records identify her as a white or Caucasian woman born on January 29, 1945, and describe the case as originating in Clark County. The available accounts are sparse, but they consistently place her last known contact in the vicinity of the 5200 block of East Lake Mead Boulevard in Las Vegas.
According to case summaries that cite NamUs information, Nancy’s family last had contact with her from that area, and after that contact she was not heard from again. The exact circumstances surrounding what happened before or after that point are not clearly explained in the public records, leaving much of the timeline vague and painfully incomplete.
The identifying information released for Nancy reflects the kind of details investigators and loved ones hoped might help someone recognize her. Sources describe her as having blue eyes and light brown, brown, graying red, or similarly described hair, with her weight listed at about 150 pounds. Her height is reported differently across sources, with some listings giving 5 feet 6 inches and another giving 5 feet 8 inches, a discrepancy that is not unusual in older missing-person records but important to note with care. Nancy may have used the alias or nickname Nancy Smith. A distinctive physical feature repeatedly noted in the public records is a round tattoo of a wolf on the outside of her forearm. At the time she was last known to be in contact, she was reported to have been wearing a wedding ring on her left ring finger and a watch on her left wrist. One public flyer also notes that she may have required medical attention, adding concern to the already troubling nature of her disappearance.
The case has remained documented through national and public missing-person databases, including NamUs-related listings and nonprofit missing-person resources. NamUs lists the case as Missing Person MP211 for Nancy Sue Wiesnies, with the date of last contact recorded as January 1, 2004, in Las Vegas. TrackMissing lists the investigating agency as the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and provides a contact phone number of 702-229-2907. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department states generally that its Missing Persons Detail investigates missing-person reports, works to determine whether a crime occurred, initiates searches, and seeks to return missing people to their families, though the publicly available case summaries for Nancy do not provide a detailed investigative narrative or explain what searches, interviews, or leads may have followed her disappearance.
What remains publicly known about Nancy Sue Wiesnies is limited but deeply significant: she was a 58-year-old woman with family who expected to remain in contact with her, last associated with East Lake Mead Boulevard in Las Vegas on January 1, 2004, and then the record goes quiet. The lack of detail does not make her story smaller; it underscores how difficult unresolved disappearances can be for families, especially when years pass with few public answers. Nancy is remembered in the available records through her name, her age, her physical description, her wolf tattoo, the jewelry she was believed to be wearing, and the final known point of contact that anchors the case. In overview, this is the missing-person case of Nancy Sue Wiesnies: a Las Vegas woman last known to have contacted her family from the 5200 block of East Lake Mead Boulevard, whose disappearance has been preserved in public databases but whose exact circumstances remain unclear.Last Seen: Jan 1, 2004
