Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP71934) and 5 other sources
Barbara Gould, a 73-year-old woman, was last seen on November 13, 2018, in the area of Bluewater Acres, New Mexico. On that day, she was involved in an altercation with the driver of a vehicle in which she had been traveling. The confrontation occurred in the Zuni Mountains along Forest Road 180, after which Barbara exited the vehicle and was reportedly left behind. She has not been seen or heard from since that moment.

A Silver Alert was issued soon after her disappearance, as Barbara was considered endangered due to her age and possible vulnerabilities. Despite efforts by law enforcement, including the Cibola County Sheriff's Office, no significant leads have emerged. Her personal details, such as her brown hair, green eyes, and her relatively small stature at 5’1”, were widely circulated in hopes of locating her.

The circumstances surrounding Barbara's disappearance remain unclear, though the isolated area where she was last seen has led to concerns that she may have faced dire conditions. Search efforts have yet to yield results, and authorities continue to seek information from the public that might provide new leads in this unresolved case.
