This is very concerning as Ms. Annie has several medical conditions. I have not seen any word on if cameras were able to tell who was driving the car or if she was alone.
Lavonia is about 45 miles /1 hour drive from her home in SC. I'm thinking she's somewhere confused. Parks and bodies of water should be checked. MOO
Family seeks help for missing Abbeville woman
By Robert Jordan [email protected] Feb 17, 2026 Updated 3 hrs ago
Ryann Tisdale spent all of Tuesday searching for her grandmother, Annie Tisdale.
Annie was last seen about 5 p.m. on Feb. 14. Annie, 78, drives a 2021 black four-wheel drive Toyota Tacoma, according to Facebook post released by the family. She was last seen wearing a black dress with white polka dots, and a cowboy hat.
Annie wears a wig and always has on a hat, Ryann said of her grandmother. She is married to James Tisdale, a member of the Abbeville County School Board of Trustees.
Annie's vehicle was last seen entering the city limits of Lavonia, Georgia, at 6:21 a.m. on Sunday and left the city about 7:38 a.m. the same day, according to a news release from the Lavonia Police Department. The license plate number is 331860W.
The information was obtained from Lavonia's system of FLOCK Safety Cameras. The release indicates the vehicle’s tag has not been detected by cameras since then.
The last time anyone saw Annie, she told her husband that she was going to get some food, Ryann said late Tuesday afternoon.
Ryann spent the day roaming the back roads around Lavonia in hopes of finding her grandmother. Other relatives are either helping with a search or calling different places.
"We think that she got lost because the car was tracked going back and forth from Abbeville and the Lavonia area," Ryann said.
Lavonia officers and investigators checked the area, including locations outside the department's jurisdiction. Those efforts resulted in no contact with Annie or the vehicle, the report says. As of Tuesday, Annie is not thought to be within the city limits of Lavonia. Police department officials are working with the Abbeville Police Department on the case.
Annie's vehicle was tracked on cameras throughout Saturday night, Ryann said. Her grandmother had about $50 on her, but apparently no bank or credit cards.
Annie retired from a 39-year teaching career at a middle school in Abbeville County, Ryann said. Annie suffers from chronic kidney disease and possibly early onset dementia. Ryann said her grandmother failed a dementia test during a recent doctor's visit.
Annie also suffers from asthma and sleep apnea, Ryann said. As a result, she sleeps a lot.
"I would think that she would ask for help," Ryann said. "She is stubborn, but it's been three days. We are very nervous."
"At this time, we have no additional information to provide," said Lt. Wayne Mitchum with the Lavonia Police Department. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Tisdale’s family, and we hope she is located safely."
