I searched NamUS, and I found a few young black women who went missing from relatively nearby areas in the time frame when the UID is believed to have died.

Debra Ann Harmon – The Charley Project
Debra Ann Harmon
Harmon was last seen in Jacksonville, Florida on September 15, 1988. She left home between 9:00 and 9:30 p.m. to go to her boyfriend's house, never returned and has never been heard from again.
Just before her disappearance, Harmon had filed a police report accusing her boyfriend of aggravated assault, saying he had threatened to kill her if she didn't leave. She told the police that she and her boyfriend had been seeing each other for four years, but she was going to end the relationship because he was jealous. She said over the past four days, her boyfriend had pointed a rifle at her and threatened to kill her if he saw her outside her home or with another man.
The alleged assault happened at around 6:50 p.m. on September 15; Harmon disappeared just hours later. Her case remains unsolved.

Detra Renvictoria McGuire – The Charley Project
Detra Renvictoria McGuire
Detra was last seen leaving her residence at Gatorwood Apartments off Huntsboro Street en route to the store at 7:00 p.m. on November 2, 1988. She disappeared with her two-year-old daughter, Roshanda McGuire. They lived with Detra's other child and her boyfriend in the same apartment building as Detra's parents.
A few minutes after 9:00 p.m. that same day, Roshanda's body was found lying in the road on eastbound Interstate 10 between Highway 441 and Highway 41. She had road rash, bruises, scratches and abrasions, and her neck was broken. She was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital.
Detra's vehicle, a black 1988 Nissan Sentra with the Florida license plate number 729-AWC, was later found abandoned at Ellisville Truck Stop in Columbia County, Florida. There was no sign of her at the scene.
No one has ever been charged in Roshanda's death, but authorities stated her mother was not a suspect. Detra's disappearance remains unsolved.

------------------------------------
All three of these women went missing within an hour of where the UID's remains were located. A fourth, Melinda Holder, meets the location and PMI criteria fairly well, but she is far outside of the estimated age range. She was 36 when she went missing in 1989 from Green Cove Springs, part of the Jacksonville metropolitan area.
Out of all three of these women, Debra Harmon looks the most promising in terms of location.
The only thing I'm not totally sure I understand is the description of a "high, smooth forehead" on the UID. I can't really appreciate that when looking at the photos of the three missing women. Perhaps it's the camera angles, or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough. Any input is appreciated.
