Vital Statistics at Time of Disappearance
Missing Since: June 24, 2000 from Franklin, New York
Classification: Endangered Missing
Date Of Birth: November 19, 1924
Age: 75 years old
Height and Weight: 5'5, 150 pounds
Distinguishing Characteristics: Caucasian female. Gray hair, hazel eyes. Olsen wears eyeglasses.
Clothing/Jewelry Description: A blue shirt, green corduroy shorts, two wristwatches and sunglasses.
Medical Conditions: Olsen suffers from a form of dementia. She may be disoriented as a result of her condition.
Details of Disappearance
Olsen was last seen between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m. on June 24, 2000 at her family's residence on Fletcher Farm Road in Franklin, New York. She has never been heard from again.
Olsen's family members told authorities that she always took her dog, Katie, for walks in her neighborhood. Katie was discovered inside the residence after Olsen disappearance. Her loved ones believe that Olsen may have vanished after retrieving the mail or visiting a neighbor, as she never brought Katie along for short excursions.
Authorities believe Olsen may have attempted to return to her previous residence in Wethersfield, Connecticut. Her daughter said that Olsen's first great-grandchild was born prior to her disappearance. Olsen was anxious to see the infant and her daughter planned to bring the baby to Olsen's New York residence in early July 2000. It is possible that Olsen attempted to travel to her grandchild's Connecticut home to see the newborn, but she never arrived. Authorities also speculated that she may have traveled to the Adirondack region of New York for the Fourth Of July celebrations, as many of her neighbors frequented the area at the time. Olsen was never spotted during the festivities. Her case remains unsolved.

It took Harriet T. Olsen an hour to disappear.
She had dinner with her husband on a summer night in 2000 inside the couple's Franklin County home in the Adirondacks, said the New York State Police. Her husband, Henry Olsen, headed outside after dinner and spent less than an hour in his garage, troopers said.
When he returned to his home, his wife was gone.
Harriet Olsen, then 75, disappeared from her Bloomingdale home in June 2000. More than 16 years later, she remains missing.
Troopers, forest rangers and environmental conservation police spent two weeks searching for Harriet Olsen.
"The search failed to locate Harriet T. Olsen or provide any substantial leads," troopers said.
