In the late summer of 2009, a 45-year-old woman named Chatham Elise Wilson, who was often called "Cissy" by those who knew her, had contact with her family for what would be the last time. At the time, she was in Amherst, Ohio, a city in Lorain County. After this final communication in August, a period of silence began, and her whereabouts became unknown. Chatham was a woman with brown hair and brown eyes, and she had noticeable scars on both of her cheeks and on her neck. For reasons that have not been made public, more than three and a half years would pass before Chatham Wilson was officially reported as a missing person. The report was filed with the Lorain Police Department on March 26, 2013, when she was 48 years old. The significant delay between when she was last heard from and when she was formally reported missing has created substantial challenges for investigators and has left a void of information in the critical early stages of the case. The lack of a clear timeline and the cold trail have made it difficult to piece together the circumstances of her disappearance. The case of Chatham Wilson is marked by a profound lack of information. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance are listed as unknown, and there are very few details available to the public about her life at the time or what might have led to her going missing. Information regarding her clothing, any personal belongings she may have had with her, or her mode of transportation has not been made available. Her case remains an open and unsolved missing person investigation, a quiet and sorrowful mystery for her family and community. Anyone with information regarding the disappearance of Chatham Elise Wilson is encouraged to contact the Lorain Police Department.
