Missing Person

Hamilton Police continue to seek information about the whereabouts of Susan Yvonne Gourley.

Susan was last seen in early November 2001 near Barton Street and Stirton Avenue in Hamilton. Her mother reported her missing on February 28, 2002, after an unusually long period without contact.

Although Susan had previously been away for extended periods, this absence raised concerns for her well-being. At the time of her disappearance, she was involved in sex work and was known to use drugs.

Description at the time of disappearance

• White woman
• Approximately 5 feet 6 inches (168 cm) tall and 141 pounds (64 kg)
• Straight, light brown hair and brown eyes
• Multiple tattoos
• Scar on her forehead
• Appendectomy scar on her abdomen

Anyone who knew Susan, saw her after early November 2001 or has information about her whereabouts is asked to contact Hamilton Police. A conversation or encounter you remember could help investigators trace her movements and provide answers to her family.
