In the summer of 1994, a 20-year-old woman named Thomasina Willamina Crosby vanished from her life in Jackson, Tennessee. The last time any family member heard from her was in July of that year, when she called to say she was planning a trip to Alabama for a visit. It was a simple, hopeful message that gave no indication of the silence that would follow. Thomasina, a young Black female with black hair and brown eyes, was just starting her adult life.
Standing between 5'2' and 5'6' and weighing between 110 and 140 pounds, she was a tangible presence who seemingly disappeared without a trace after that final phone call.
As days turned into weeks and then months with no word, her family grew increasingly concerned. Their daughter, sister, and loved one, who may have also gone by the name 'Keisha', was gone, and the reasons why were a complete mystery. The family's attempts to reach her were unsuccessful, and they were left with nothing but questions and a growing sense of dread. The silence from Thomasina was uncharacteristic, and the hope of seeing her walk through the door or hearing her voice on the phone began to fade with the passing of time, replaced by the harsh reality that she was missing.
In January of 1995, the Jackson Police Department officially opened an investigation into her disappearance. When officers conducted a welfare check at her last known address in Jackson, they found she was no longer there. A former roommate provided a small piece of the puzzle, stating that Thomasina had been evicted and had moved out with all of her belongings back in July 1994, the same month she last spoke to her family. This detail confirmed her departure but offered no clues as to her destination or her state of mind. Since that time, there has been no contact from Thomasina, and her case has remained cold. Decades have passed, but the investigation remains open, a quiet testament to a life interrupted and a family left waiting for answers.Last Seen: Jul 1, 1994
