I just noticed the age too on the heading for her thread. She is around 30 to 35 from what we know. Not sure that makes a difference to you all, but wanted to put that out there.

I'm so glad to help and thank you for the lovely compliment! Let me know if any changes are needed.
She was only 30-35? Rough life on her face. :(

Do you know if she had any disability like Down Syndrome?

None noted. She was over weight and I think the clay bust just doesn't show her age well. She did work outside and like I said had a hard job, picking on a farm, that is hard labor in the South.

UPDATE - Help Identify Jane Doe - Found in 1972

On 07-19-1972, the body of an unidentified female was discovered in the area of High Corner Road and Cortez Boulevard (State Road 50), Brooksville, Hernando County, FL. It is highly possible the female had recently traveled from Alabama or north Florida.

The female was found wrapped in a bedspread with a distinctive pattern, possibly a “Pineapple Damask” print. There were three square corners and one rounded corner.

The Hernando County Sheriff's Office recently had a facial reconstruction performed by FaceLogics on the victim in this case. The colorized photo of the woman is the artist's rendition of the victim in this investigation.

Hernando detectives seek answers in 1972 cold case murder

Hernando County detectives asked for the community’s help in solving a 1972 cold case murder.
www.wfla.com www.wfla.com
''Shelton’s identity or origins were unknown for decades until Detective George Loydgren learned of a possible name after getting a tip from Othram Labs on Aug. 11, 2022.

A month later, Othram Labs sent a kinship report that positively identified Shelton as the victim.

The case is still unsolved, so detectives asked that anyone with information call Detective George
Loydgren at 352-754-6830 or Hernando County Crime Stoppers at 1-866-990-TIPS
(8477).''
