LONDONDERRY - Local police are seeking the public's help in locating a Londonderry woman, 69, who hasn't been seen since her doctor's appointment early Thursday morning.

Barbara Martineau, 69, was last seen around 8:30 a.m. on Oct. 4, according to Police Lt. Tim Jones.

Martineau had reportedly driven her 2005 Mercury Mariner to a medical appointment in Nashua that morning but still hasn't come home.

“She made it to that appointment, but we don't know where she may have gone after that,” Jones said.

Police said Martineau currently lives with family members, who've noticed her memory seems to be diminishing recently.

By Thursday evening, after Martineau still hadn't arrived home, police were notified.

Martineau is 5 feet tall and weighs approximately 165 lbs. She was last seen wearing a gray and plaid flannel top, black pants and a pink knit hat. She was operating a 2005 Mercury Mariner, color blue, bearing NH registration 420135.

Police believe she may possibly still be in the Nashua or Manchester area.

Those who believe they may have seen Martineau or have any information on her disappearance are urged to contact the nearest police department.
