Brown Maxwell, reported as 114 years old, went missing in Rochester, Vermont, during the catastrophic flooding from Hurricane Irene on August 28, 2011. He was last seen near Woodlawn Cemetery, an area that suffered severe damage in the storm. At the time of his disappearance he was described as 5 feet tall and about 150 pounds.

The extreme weather and widespread flood damage made searches difficult and left Rochester isolated, which significantly hindered recovery and search operations. No significant leads have been reported and Maxwell has not been located.

If anyone was in the Woodlawn Cemetery area or elsewhere in Rochester during the flooding and remembers seeing Maxwell or has information that could help, please come forward.
