There’s something terribly horrendous about the thought of a “missing” person. Someone who vanished, gone. Away from you, away from me. Gone in a swinging door, a morning away, the blink of an eye. We recently discovered a map of missing persons, hosted by Google and fed by sites such as DoeNetwork.Org and Charley Project.Org, both seeking to find those lost in cases gone cold long ago.

These are all the identified men and women in Tennessee that remain missing.

Men in blue, women in pink. Clicking on the little arrows shows you precisely who they are, with all the necessary information.

Sadly, here we have the men and women that are listed as unidentified.

These are unidentified folk, with links to their descriptions in hopes that someone, someday, will recognize the jumble of details and figure a face.

If you look at them all together, you can hardly see the state.

If you look at everyone together - identified, unidentified, all missing - you can hardly see the United States.

The continental US is simply BURSTING at the seams with missing loved ones.

We’d encourage you to look. To click around, take a look at your neighborhood and see what loved one vanished from your streets. This isn’t a joke - it’s a problem. That you can fix.

You can be the change in Tennessee. Share with your friends and family in support of those good Tennesseans, waiting to be found.
