The family has posted a $1,000 reward for information about Chandler, who disappeared from her home on Highway 34 North.

Chandler was last heard from around 3 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 23. Her family was unable to reach her when they tried to call her at around the same time the next day. The door to her home was found unlocked and the windows open.

Family members say Chandler has dealt with mental health issues in the past and was taking anti-depressant medications at the time.

“She never in her life has been missing before, never in her life,” Johnson said.

Chandler may have begun walking south along Highway 34 toward Greenville from her residence and may have been picked up by a passing motorist. Sheriff’s investigators were able to track Chandler’s scent with bloodhounds five miles along the highway before the trail ended.

New clues found in Wolfe City disappearance

Lisa Chandler vanished from her Wolfe City-area residence 18 months ago.

A search conducted this week near Chandler’s home may have turned up evidence in connection with the disappearance, according to Hunt County Sheriff Randy Meeks.

“We found three items of interest, not a body,” Meeks said. “We don’t know whether it is related to this case.”

Chandler’s son Chris has worked primarily from his home in Florida to keep publicizing information about the disappearance and said he was contacted by the sheriff’s office about what had been found.

Chandler may have begun walking south along Highway 34 toward Greenville from her residence and may have been picked up by a passing motorist. Sheriff’s investigators were able to track Chandler’s scent with bloodhounds five miles along the highway before the trail ended.

Meeks said his office was contacted recently by someone who said a witness observed an individual near the bridge across Brushy Branch Creek, about three-fourths of a mile south of Chandler’s home, around the time of the disappearance.

“They said the person was seen dragging something down to the area,” Meeks said, adding deputies searched both sides of the creek bed Wednesday.

Meeks did not specify on what type of items were found at the site, but added the items recovered had been sent off for forensics testing.

Chris Chandler said he had been told at least one of the items recovered appeared to be a bone which did not appear to belong to an animal.
