1021 Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah 36 The sixth Fatimid caliph and 16th Ismaili imam rode his donkey to the Mokattam hills, outside Cairo, for one of his regular nocturnal meditation outings and failed to return. A search found only the donkey and his bloodstained garments.
1071 Hereward the Wake, 36-37 A formerly exiled Anglo-Danish minor noble rebel, Hereward the Wake led a huge revolt in the marshy region of Ely in England against the rule of William the Conqueror. He was eventually betrayed by fearful local monks who led the Norman troops through secret trackways. Many rebels were mutilated or executed but Hereward escaped never to be heard of again.
c. 1291 Vandino and Ugolino Vivaldi Genoese sailors and explorers were lost while attempting the first oceanic journey from Europe to Asia. Their two galleys sailed out of the Mediterranean Sea and into the Atlantic Ocean but were never heard from again.
1398 Gearóid Iarla FitzGerald lord of Munster and Norman-Gaelic poet disappeared.
1412 Owain Glyndŵr The last native Welsh person to hold the title Prince of Wales Owain instigated the Welsh Revolt against the rule of Henry IV of England in 1400.

The remains of four children which have been found could be the princes, but they have not been subjected to DNA analysis to positively identify them.
Richard of Shrewsbury, 1st Duke of York 9
1487 Lord Lovell Lord Lovell, a rebel Yorkist knight, was last seen alive fleeing from the Battle of Stoke Field after defeat by the Lancastrians. In 1488 he was granted safe conduct in Scotland by King James IV but there is no evidence he was ever in the country. (A skeleton found at one of his mansions at Minster Lovell, Oxfordshire, in 1708 was believed without evidence to be his.)
1499 John Cabot John Cabot, an Italian explorer, disappeared along with his five ships during an expedition to find a western route from Europe to Asia.

1628 David Thompson The founder of the New Hampshire colony in 1623, Thompson moved his family to an island in Boston Harbor (today called Thompson Island in his honor) in 1626 becoming the first European settlers of Boston, Massachusetts. He disappeared in 1628 and was never heard from again. Some historians theorize he was the victim of foul play while others suggest he accidentally drowned in Boston Harbor.
1638 Urasoe Chōri A member of Sanshikan, Urasoe Chōri went on a boat trip to Satsuma but his ship was caught in a storm and disappeared in the sea. He is believed to have drowned.
1661 René Menard A French Jesuit missionary, Fr. René Menard disappeared while traveling by canoe with a Native guide from the area of present-day L'Anse, Michigan, on Lake Superior, to minister to a Huron village deep in the Wisconsin interior. After encountering a series of rapids Menard and his guide agreed that he would walk downstream on shore while his more skilled companion brought the boat through. The latter passed the rapids successfully but Menard was never seen again. Years later, his cassock and breviary were discovered in a Dakota village far from the scene.
1671 Roche Braziliano 40-41 A Dutch pirate born in the town of Groningen, Roche Braziliano, whose career lasted from 1654 until 1671, when he disappeared during that year, and was never seen again.
1696 Henry Every (sometimes spelled 'Avery') Henry Every, anEnglish pirate, vanished after perpetrating one of the most profitable pirate raids in history. Despite a worldwide manhunt and an enormous bounty on his head Every was never heard from again. In March, Every had led his ship, the Fancy, to the island of New Providence. He and his crew spent months living there and soon lost their ship. By June, Every and his crew were forced to flee the island. The crew then split up, with Every possibly setting sail toward Ireland. A manhunt for Every lasted for at least a decade. There were several unconfirmed sightings of him and contradictory reports of his death during the 18th century. Most of them are considered unreliable, however, and his actual fate is unknown.
1704 Laurens de Graaf Laurens de Graaf was last known to be near Louisiana where he was to help set up a French colony near present-day Biloxi, Mississippi. Some sources claim he died there while others claim he died at different locations in Alabama.

1792 James Harrod 46 An early explorer of the areas west of the Appalachian Mountains prior to their settlement by European-Americans, James Harrod never returned from a trip to western Kentucky from Harrodsburg. Theories about his fate range from murder at the hands of his companions or Native Americans in the area, to accidental death or a desire to abandon his wife and family.

Five hours later she used her credit card to buy a cup of coffee in Saint-Romuald 20 kilometres (12 mi) from her parents' house. She had just settled in there the day before after abruptly moving out of her Montreal apartment where she told her parents (who had noticed that she had grown depressed and fearful over the last two months) that she no longer felt safe but would not explain why. Reports in 2010 that she was living in Hawkesbury, Ontario could not be verified.

Two months later her fiancé's father, who lived nearby and had given her one of her rides to the hospital that day, was revealed to have been a person of interest in her disappearance. This followed his death from heatstroke after he locked himself in the trunk of an ex-girlfriend's car in what police believe was an attempt to ambush her.

2010s

2010

  • Russell Bohling (18), disappeared from the Bempton area of the East Riding of Yorkshire, England on 2 March 2010. His car was found in the car park for Bempton Cliffs RSPB site which has seen some suicides. The police assume suicide or tragic accident, though no body has been found. His family maintain that a third party was involved as he did not have enough fuel to drive to Bempton from his family home in West Ella, a USB stick detailing the pornographic artwork and graffiti left on the walls of the former bunker of RAF Bempton was missing and the trainers he supposedly wore that day were found in the family's holiday home even further up the coast after he had disappeared.
  • Paolo Renda (76), member of the Rizzuto crime family in Montreal, told his family he would be picking up steaks for dinner on his way back from a 20 May funeral; he never arrived. He was presumed kidnapped after his car was found with the windows down and keys in the ignition along his route. The family believes he was killed in retaliation for his role in a 1970s murder; however, their 2013 attempt to have him declared legally dead was denied on the grounds of insufficient evidence.
  • Kyron Horman (7), American schoolboy, did not return from his school in northwestern Portland, on 4 June. Multiple searches since that day have uncovered no evidence of his fate.
  • Vasyl Klymentyev (66), a Ukrainian investigative journalist and the editor-in-chief of the newspaper Noviy Stil based in Kharkiv, Ukraine, who disappeared on 11 August under mysterious circumstances, and is presumed dead.
  • Ben McDaniel (30), of Collierville, Tennessee, recreational scuba diver, was last seen 58 feet (18 m) underwater while being allowed into a cave he was not certified to enter at Vortex Spring near Ponce de Leon, Florida on the evening of 18 August; his failure to return was not noted for another two days. Extensive searches found only two decompression tanks that were placed incorrectly and filled with the wrong gases; no evidence of a body has been found in the spring. While it is still possible his body is in an unexplored area of the cave, other theories include foul play, possibly related to the suspicious 2011 death of Vortex Spring's owner, and a possible staged disappearance in the wake of McDaniel's recent marital and financial failures.
  • Forrest Schab (26), Canadian rapper better known by his stage name "DY", was reported missing in Mexico on 18 November. He had not been seen since leaving Canada in the middle of August.

  • Bethany Decker (21), student at George Mason University in Virginia, was last heard from on 29 January, when she called the restaurant she worked at to confirm her schedule for the next week. Her husband and a boyfriend both claim to have seen her that day as well. Three weeks later, after Facebook messages from her to friends that seemed to them to have been written by someone else, she was reported missing. Investigators found no evidence of activity on her part other than the suspicious Facebook messages since the day she was last seen. The boyfriend is considered a person of interest in the case; he has since been arrested on an attempted-murder charge in North Carolina after a domestic incident with a later girlfriend who claims he made statements suggesting he had some involvement in Decker's disappearance.
  • Rebecca Coriam (24), crew member aboard the cruise ship Disney Wonder, was last seen on 22 March, when a security camera in the crew lounge recorded her having an upsetting telephone conversation.

When she returned he was gone. Police found that the car had plenty of fuel left and worked as it should; they publicly expressed doubts about her story as she and the boy's father were getting divorced and she had just withdrawn from a mediated custody agreement that gave him visitation. The case was also noted to be similar to a recently aired episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit; investigators have even questioned whether Sky was in the car that morning at all. While police have indicated they could charge the mother with child endangerment, they have declined to do so due to those doubts.
  • Ayla Reynolds (1), was not in her bed on the morning of 17 December. She had last been seen the night before in her father's Waterville, Maine, home, by his sister or girlfriend, both of whom were also in residence.

He never re-boarded the ship and witnesses claim they saw him getting into another taxi to go back into Dubai. He was declared dead (presumed drowned according to the death certificate) in 2014.
  • Guma Aguiar (35), Brazilian-born American industrialist and part-owner of Israel's Beitar Jerusalem football club, was last seen leaving his home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on 19 June. The next day his fishing boat, the T.T. Zion, was found with lights on and engines running, having gone aground on a local beach. His wallet and cell phone were on board. Two weeks of searches failed to find any trace of him. He was declared legally dead in 2015.
  • Emma Fillipoff (26), disappeared on 28 November from in front of The Empress Hotel, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, after a 45-minute conversation with Victoria Police.
  • Sombath Somphone (60), Laotian community activist, who disappeared on 15 December around 6 pm at a Vientiane police post after having been stopped while driving behind his wife's car. CCTV footage showed a motorcyclist getting off his bike and driving Somphone's car away, and a white truck approaching and subsequently driving off with Somphone.

2013

  • Evi Nemeth (73), The American computer engineer, often described as the matriarch of system administration, disappeared along with several others aboard the yacht Niña between New Zealand and Australia on 4 June 2013. No trace of them has ever been found.
  • Federico Tobares (37), Federico, an Argentine chef, disappeared on 5 June 2013 while driving from Puerto Vallarta to Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. On 10 June a co-worker and friend of Tobares went to the Mexican police to report his disappearance making Tobares the first Argentinian to disappear in Mexico.
  • Allison (19) and Marie-José Benitez (53), The French mother and her daughter disappeared from Perpignan on 14 July 2013. Francisco Benitez, the husband of Marie-José and father of Allison, told police that they had traveled to Toulouse and switched their mobile phones off after a family argument but there is no evidence that they ever left. Francisco Benitez committed suicide three weeks later after becoming the prime suspect. It was discovered that he had led a double life involving numerous affairs and that a mistress of his had disappeared under similarly mysterious circumstances in 2004 as well.
  • Aidin Bozorgi (24), The Iranian mountain climber and two companions had successfully completed climbing a new route on the Southwest Face of Broad Peak, Pakistan that they had been working on since 2009. The group disappeared on 20 July 2013 and are believed to be dead.
  • Robert Hoagland (50), The Newtown, Connecticut man was reportedly last seen mowing the lawn of his home on the morning of 28 July 2013. Earlier that day he was seen on video buying a road map and fuel for his wife's car at a local gas station. His disappearance was discovered after he failed to pick up his wife when she returned from a trip abroad the following day.
  • Tiffany Daniels (25), Tiffany, a theatre technician at Pensacola State College in Florida, left work early on 12 August 2013 after telling her supervisor that she would be taking the rest of the week off as she had "some things to take care of". She returned to her home briefly afterwards but was not seen by her housemate who was on the phone at the time. Eight days later her car was found in a Pensacola Beach parking lot with witnesses reporting that they saw a man in red shorts get out of the car and open its tailgate on the day it was found. No other trace of her has been found despite extensive searches but, based on a description of a woman seen at a New Orleans-area restaurant who resembled her and had some similar behaviors, her family believes she was abducted and became a victim of human trafficking.
  • Carlos Ornelas Puga (35), Carlos was kidnapped by what is believed to be organized crime gunmen on 3 November 2013 in Jiménez, Tamaulipas. Four days later a police team was sent to the area to investigate but were attacked leaving three officers wounded by gunfire. He has not been seen since.
  • Zsolt Erőss (45), The Hungarian high-altitude mountaineer who, after successfully climbing Kangchenjunga on 20 May 2013, went missing during his descent. Searches were suspended two days later because, according to the expedition's leader and other experienced mountaineers, his chances of survival would have been impossible.

2014

  • Lars Mittank (28), Lars, a German man on holiday in Bulgaria, vanished from the Varna Airport on 8 July 2014. He was last seen on security footage entering the airport with all his luggage and later running out of the building in panic, leaving his luggage behind.
  • Avera Mengistu, An Israeli Ethiopian Jew from Ashkelon, Israel crossed into Gaza through Zikim beach on 7 September 2014 and has been missing since.
  • William Tyrrell (3), William vanished on 12 September 2014 while playing with his sister in the front yard of their grandmother's house in Kendall, New South Wales, Australia. Although police still regard it as an active case, no trace of the boy has been found.
  • Tammy Kingery (37), The North Augusta, South Carolina woman was last seen in her home by her husband before he went out with one of their children to run some errands on the morning of 20 September 2014. She had come home early from work claiming she did not feel well and, atypical for her, she left behind a note saying she was going for a walk and would return soon. Her purse and phone were left behind along with her keys, which she would have needed, to lock the house as her husband found upon his return. Police consider her disappearance suspicious.
  • Rico Harris (37), The former high school basketball star and Harlem Globetrotter was last heard from when he called his girlfriend at their home in Seattle on the morning of 10 October 2014 to tell her he was going to the mountains to rest. At the time he was north of Sacramento, California at the midpoint of his drive back to Seattle from a visit to his family outside Los Angeles. Four days later his abandoned car was found at a Yolo County park along Cache Creek. Video footage and photos on his cell phone suggests that he had arrived there sometime after his last phone call. Several possible sightings of him were reported in the area over the next week and footprints were found near the location of his car that were large enough to belong to the 6-foot-9-inch (206 cm) Harris.

2015

  • Asha Kreimer (26), An Australian national living with her boyfriend in California, left her family's table at a Flumeville restaurant during breakfast on the morning of 21 September, to go to the bathroom.

2016

2017

  • Zelim Bakaev (25), A Russian Chechen singer who disappeared in Chechnya on 8 August 2017 while on a brief visit to the region to attend his sister's wedding. It is widely believed that he had been abducted, tortured, and murdered by the Chechen authorities as part of their systematic persecution of homosexuals.
  • Yingying Zhang (26), A Chinese visiting scholar conducting research at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign was last seen on 9 June 2017 in Urbana, Illinois. Security cameras captured her getting into a car at the corner of West Clark Street and North Goodwin Avenue around 2:04 p.m. that day. Police arrested Brendt Christensen on 30 June 2017 and charged him with kidnapping Zhang and believe, based on available evidence, that she is no longer alive.
