Marlyse Elizabeth Honeychurch (January 28, 1954 - c. November 1978) was one of four female homicide victims found in Allenstown, New Hampshire. She was the only adult victim.
The family, perhaps, had died during or after May 1980, as a woman using the name "Elizabeth Evans" in legal documents may have been Marylse.
Case
Marlyse was last seen by her family in 1978 in California, where she had an argument with her mother and took off with her two children, Marie Vaughn and Sarah McWaters.
Honeychurch was found dismembered in a barrel with Marie Vaughn, the oldest of the three child victims. The woman is believed to be the mother of the oldest and youngest child, based on recent DNA testing.
The father of the middle child has been identified as Robert "Bob" Evans, a convicted murderer and a suspected serial killer. He is considered a suspect in these murders. He died in 2010. In August 2017 "Robert Evans" had been identified as Terry Peder Rasmussen who left his family in Arizona around 1974 and was never seen again by his relatives. At the time of her disappearance, Marlyse was dating Rasmussen.
It is theorized that she may have been Elizabeth, since Rasmussen listed this name as his spouse's at the time of his arrest in 1980. The name may have been also of the middle child's unidentified and unrecovered mother or maybe none of these women- as it's possible that Evans lied about having a wife and "Elizabeth" had actually never existed.
In June 2019, Honeychurch was identified, along with her daughters Marie Vaughn and Sarah McWaters. The middle child still remains unidentified.
