Friends and family spent Sunday searching for a missing Fleming County man who has not been seen or heard from in more than six weeks.
Wesley Mattox’s mother Jean told LEX18’s Evan Gorman the last time she saw her son was on October 11th. She along with more than a dozen friends and family members conducted their first group search for Wesley on Sunday.
“The more ground that we can cover and check areas to make sure that he’s not there then we can rule out those, ” Wesley’s cousin, Cindy Savey, told LEX18.

Wesley’s mother said she would talk to her son at least once a day. The day the 41-year-old went missing he was reportedly walking to a local drug store with his dog Redd, but he never returned home. It is believed he may have been spotted walking near Southern States, just blocks away from where he was living.
“Well if he was walking home and took a short cut or something he could’ve fell over there somewhere, ” Mattox’s mother Jean explained.
Fearing the worst, Jean said doesn’t know what happened to her son, but she said he would be happy to see those who are helping.
“Wes would be real proud if he could see who all is here for him, ” Jean said.
Mattox’s mother said Wesley’s dog came home four days after he was reported missing.
Wesley is roughly 5’9″ and weighs around 180 lbs. If you know where he may be you are asked to call the Fleming County Sheriff’s Office or state police.
