Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP15099) and 7 other sources
Evelyn Page Fox was a 33-year-old woman from East Orange, New Jersey, who vanished under puzzling circumstances in the winter of 1984. She was last seen by her family on December 28th of that year. Following this last encounter, she has not been seen or heard from again. Born in Virginia, Evelyn was a Black female with brown hair and brown eyes. She had a few distinguishing physical characteristics, including a lazy right eye, for which she wore eyeglasses, and spots on her arms and legs resulting from a rash. At the time of her disappearance, she was described as being 5 feet 2 inches tall and weighing approximately 120 pounds.

The details surrounding the day Evelyn went missing are sparse, and there is little public information available regarding the specific circumstances of her disappearance. It is known that she was with her family in East Orange on that late December day, but what happened after she parted from them remains a mystery. The lack of available information has made the investigation into her disappearance incredibly challenging for law enforcement over the decades. The East Orange Police Department has been the primary agency investigating her case, with her case number listed as 8549.

Decades have passed since Evelyn Fox was last seen, and her case has grown cold, yet the search for answers continues. Her information has been entered into national databases for missing persons, including the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System under case number MP15099. The hope remains that renewed attention to her case might generate new leads or encourage someone with information to come forward. The overview of this case is one of a sudden and unexplained disappearance that has left a family without answers for many years. Despite the passage of time, efforts to find Evelyn and understand what happened to her have not been abandoned.
