Sister hopes billboard effort locates missing Edenton woman​

[...]

“We are wanting to put up billboards because my sister suffers from a medical condition which requires medication and there is a chance she may not even know who she is or where she is from at this point,” Joyner says at the page. “We are hoping maybe she or someone else that she might be with would recognize her from the billboards and bring her home.”

Shannon Dionne Anderson, who turned 50 in February, is a local artist in Edenton and features her art work at her still-active Instagram page “A Little Off Center Studio.” Her last post was 23 weeks ago, according to Instagram.

Anderson was last seen late the night of Tuesday, April 25, in Camden County. Earlier that same day, Anderson was seen on cameras leaving the property of Chowan Gardens apartments in the 200 block of Luke Street in Edenton. The Edenton Police Department first reported Anderson missing in a post on Facebook.

Four days later on Saturday, April 29, Anderson’s 2018 Ford Escape was discovered abandoned off Broad Creek Road near Texas Road in southern Camden County.

Camden Sheriff Kevin Jones, whose office led an extensive search for Anderson, has previously said Anderson stopped her vehicle off Broad Creek Road and knocked on the door of a residence between 9:30 p.m. and 11 p.m., April 25. She told the resident that “she was looking for somebody,” Jones said.

When the residents of the Broad Creek Road home were unable to help her, Anderson walked away in the direction of Texas Road, Jones said. That was the last time she was seen, the sheriff said.

Joyner said she believes when her sister left Chowan Gardens she did so intending to travel to Virginia.

[...]

Jones launched an extensive search after Anderson’s abandoned vehicle was discovered. The search zone included an area along the Pasquotank River shoreline Jones described as “swampy” and “hard to navigate.”

Deputies used drones, ATVs and a K9 trained to locate missing persons to conduct their search. The K9 was unable to pick up a scent. A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter crew using thermal imaging cameras also searched the area but were unable to detect “any objects in the wooded swamp area that resembled a human form,” Jones said.

Call either Pasquotank-Camden Central Communications at 252-331-1500 or 252-338-5046.

Oh geez...I really hope I'm wrong, but usually it's a really bad sign when they find the vehicle abandoned...

Just to the south of me. I've driven both Hwy 168 and Hwy 17 through NC many times. Hwy 168 is the main route from the north into the Outer Banks and that means a LOT of traffic. Doing an internet search, none of the local TV stations have anything on this and neither does the larger newspaper, Virginian Pilot, that covers SE VA and NE NC.

Wow. Looking at the area - Texas at Broad Creek in Camden Point - this is REALLY OFF the beaten path. This is very obviously an area that someone is going to and not through. Camden Pt. is a slender point of land just to the west of the Outer Banks and Texas Rd deadends at the water. You can turn east just before then on Sailboat but that one just takes you near the water on another part of the point. Google Maps shows Broad Creek but you can't use the map feature to see what is down that road because it is a dirt road. All of this is south of Hwy 168 from Camden (just east of Elizabeth City NC).

There's a video with more backstory, easy to find by Googling her name.

At a busy intersection near Downtown Norfolk, a missing person sign caught the attention of our 13News Now crew. The sign at the corner of Brambleton Avenue and Boush Street reads: "Missing. Shannon Dionne Anderson. Call your local law enforcement office with info." After some digging, 13News Now learned Shannon Anderson was reported missing roughly six months ago out of Edenton, North Carolina; her family is expanding their search.
