Family members confirm that the body of a man found in Wolfe County Monday night is that of missing man George A. Neace, last seen last Wednesday around 5 p.m.
“We were successful in finding a body matching the subject’s description, roughly,” said Drew Stevens of the Wolfe County Search and Rescue.”That has not been confirmed whether or not that is in fact the subject.”
Family members, however, tell LEX 18 that the body is indeed that of Neace. Kentucky State Police spotted Neace heading towards the Mountain Parkway from a gas station’s surveillance footage.

KSP officials were searching the Russell Drive area, which is near the parkway, because it is a shortcut between Neace’s former home and the place he was last seen.
“The individual that we found was walking along the top of the cliff near a small waterfall, when he unfortunately slipped and fell and fell approximately 40 feet or so, which ultimately lead to his demise,”said Stevens.
Funeral arrangements have not yet been announced for Neace.
