Family might've requested it. The authorities might've needed more time to finalize some legal stuff. There are a lot of possibilities. Also, idk whether they really kept her body in a morgue all this time or they cremated her and compared DNA from her relatives to the samples taken before...
Photo from Jewell and Atlas' wedding day included in a Facebook post by George A. Smith and Sons Funeral Home. From what I've seen, they married on April 5, 1953.
Jewell lived in Jackson, Tennessee. She went to Canada on a solo trip, maybe she knew someone there (her killer?). The only "new" thing I saw about Jewell's husband is that they married in 1953 and divorced in the early 1970s. I guess it must have been sometime between 1972 and April 1975. Oh...
He was born in 1929 and was still alive around 2008 (at least according to the sources on familysearch.com). I didn't find any obituaries for him or other info suggesting that he might have passed away. If alive, he would turn 94 in November of this year so it's not impossible that he's still...
From what I've seen on Facebook, it looks like Mary's oldest daughter, Angelique, wants to keep her body in a condition that would allow for additional testing if needed. However, her sister and uncle, Mary's brother, want the body cremated and interred in an urn. They were supposed to travel to...
There are a few local articles about Mary's identification where the reporters spoke to her daughter, Angelique. She lives in Orlando, so she didn't move far from where they originally lived in Apopka. It's all very sad, she was the oldest of all four kids Mary had and she was just 10 when Mary...
I'm sorry for being the party pooper, but, fellow sleuths, why are you posting info and obituaries about people who have not been named as Joseph's parents? Just because you feel it's them, you shouldn't post these details at this point. I get it, it's probably them, but it's way too early to...
The different spelling of Oleynik doesn't make much sense to me. Polish spelling of Oleynik is Olejnik, you read it the same way as with y. There is, though, plenty of people in Poland with the last name Olanicki/Olanicka, so my theory still is that they "cut off" the end to make it easier to...
Her surname sounds Polish. It could've been something along the lines of Olanicki at first, but because this kind of a surname ends in -ki for men and -ka for women, it might've been shortened to just Olanick to avoid the confusion or something.
I've seen that Rosario Teresa Gonzalez has been suggested before, but it doesn't look like anyone took any interest and she's not on the rule-out list provided here in August (I don't have access to this option on NamUs). Has anyone ever considered Rosario?
I find it incredibly sad that she was dead and without her name for so much longer than she was alive, but there's something comforting in knowing that on this death anniversary she finally has her name back.
Don't get me wrong, I think that Carl did amazing job with his reconstructions, they are, in my opinion, perfect renderings of WCJD, but I've been thinking that maybe someone who knew our Jane Doe saw her photos but for some reason didn't recognize her. I remember that this was the case with...
Ooooh, I'm so happy to see that Brian's family is so actively looking for him. The age progession looks great. If he's still somewhere out there (and in this case it really looks like a real possibility), it could really help out.
