Police are asking for the public’s help in locating a Greenville woman who went missing on a trip to Florida.

Greenville Police say that 83-year-old, Eleanor “Merrill” Pritham, reportedly left her home early Monday morning with her two dogs and hasn’t been seen since.

An investigation found she also stayed overnight in West Virginia this past week, and was possibly in the Augusta, Georgia region on Tuesday.

They also believe she contacted her family sometime last Wednesday afternoon, most likely from South Carolina.

Pritham is reportedly driving a red Kia Soul with a Florida plate reading: “BX44YK.”

Anyone with information that would help find Pritham, should contact Greenville Chief Josh Guay at 207-564-3304.
