*bump* for Sharon on this Mother's Day. I think of her often, and am always trying to find new avenues of investigation and information. Sadly, her daughter Amber passed back in December, so she is reunited with one of her children, albeit, very prematurely. As more time passes since her...
While the teeth of Janice do make an eyebrow raise for a minute, Jane Doe had extensive dental work performed including gold foil restoration on many of her teeth. I don't imagine at 7 that Janice not only had all of her adult teeth, but also to the point where dental work was necessary on them...

Crime Junkie podcast recently released this two part series on the Alphabet Murders. It's very thorough and well reported. While I didn't learn anything...
This is definitely a case that has really puzzled me, as I know it has all of you too. I'm frankly surprised that the rule-out list is so short? But it's encouraging that her case is with the DNA Doe Project as of this month now, so I hope she is identified soon...
I recently became aware of this Jane Doe - Ms. Startex - DNA Doe Project and found the description and resemblance to Patsy pretty compelling. Startex Jane Doe has over 80 exclusions, but Patsy is not one of them. I just contacted the investigator on Ms Startex's case, Rick Ellis, to pass along...

I know the simplest explanation is usually the answer, but I often wonder in circumstances like this (suicide), if John Doe had grown in a beard and had glasses to disguise himself?
Couldn't find much more info on Steven Lee Harbaugh, but the...
Those are great new leads, but unfortunately the investigators believe IJD was deceased and buried before the housing development was built in 1963/64. The women you found all went missing long after the homes were established, sadly. Because of this new info investigators recently released, I'm...
Saw this earlier today, happy to see an article about her. Wish they got their math right though, she went missing in 94 so that makes it 29 years missing, not 22!
As I sit here and read Benson's book 'Nightmare in Rochester' (finally arrived this afternoon) about the double initial murders, there is a chapter on Michelle McMurray. (Should have read the book before posting earlier today!) But Benson says 'by April 13 (of 1976) analysis of the semen found...
In November of 2007, James Pressler was arrested in FL after DNA evidence connected him to the rape and strangulation murder of 7 year old Michelle McMurray in April of 1976. Michelle’s killer had come into her apartment on Jay St (~2 miles from Wanda’s kidnapping), and raped and strangled her...
No I totally hear you, and yes it seemingly mirrors the plot of the Christie novel. I, again, lean towards Carmen being an outlier, and that her uncle who later died by suicide could have been involved with her murder.
Carmen's abduction and murder happened on the west side of the city...
I agree that this case will be solved via familial DNA. I'm also inclined to believe the 2nd and 3rd killings in 1973 (Wanda, then Michelle) are the two that are linked, with Carmen's 1971 killing an outlier.
To your point 'it seems impossible that the double initials thing could just be...
I was recently speaking with a man, Tim, who knew Carol Ingham (unsolved murder from 1976), asking him about the last night him and his girlfriend were with her on New Year's, etc. And after he gave me his recollection, he mentioned that he actually has a first hand account of Wanda Walkowicz...
Just want to correct myself as I look into the Aman's and their land more. The above atlas/map of property lines is actually from 1902. It was in tiny fine print at the very bottom of the whole map - 1839 is just the inception of Irondequoit!
Fascinating read. What I gathered from that was that McBride bought the Vinton vineyards in the late 1800s and took over the wine making for medicinal purposes, and always refused to sell to saloons. In 1942, the president of the Ward Establishment, Gamble, would be using the former Irondequoit...
Here are some maps I found and spliced together. The top is from 1952, and the bottom is from 1971. So in the 1952 map, you can see all the green dots indicating the orchards/groves, undeveloped yet for housing. In the second photo of the same, I drew in with a red line where the street would...
I have made contact with a few friends of Carol's, who have provided some more insight into the evening of New Year's when they were with her.
To add to the timeline, prior to being at the Handle Bar on Clifford Ave, Carol was at a bar on N Clinton Ave called Fackelman's Bar & Grill. (These...
I also wish there was a better photo of her teeth. And whether it's the shadowing that's giving the allusion or not, I think Audrey's teeth do appear to have some abnormalities possibly? I wonder if we can find out more info, it's very scant. Such an old missing persons case.
