The Lewis County Coroner is trying to identify two sets of male remains found earlier this year. Composites of each decedent are at the link.

According to investigators, timber workers reportedly discovered the remains while working in a densely wooded area near Raubuck Road.

While the sheriff’s office, the Lewis County Coroner’s Office, and the State Crime Lab are working to identify the identity and the cause of death, families and friends of missing persons in the area look at the discovery as a reason to hope for answers to painful questions revolving around disappearances without clues.

“I hope that it could be my mom, or if it’s not her then some other family’s getting answers,” said Samantha Moyer, whose mother Nancy Moyer has been missing since March 2009.

“It would just be amazing I mean even if she’s not alive we would at least know and we’d be able to mourn her properly, and I haven’t done any vigil or anything and I’m not going to do one until I find her.”

Nancy Moyer is one of several missing persons in the Lewis/Thurston County area. Logan Schiendelman disappeared from the area at age 19 nearly five years ago, without a trace. Samantha Moyer speaks for the families of other missing people with the same questions.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office at (360) 748-9286 or Lewis County Communications at (360) 740-1105.

The NamUs profile for this UID has been modified a bit.

The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)

Race/Ethnicity White/Caucasian (previously White/Caucasian or Hispanic/Latino)
Estimated Age Range 18-30 (previously 18-35)
Height 5' 10"-6' 1"(70-73 inches) , Estimated (previously 5'7"-6'2")

Can you tell me how to see the differences when a NamUs profile is updated? I know when there's an update the date is changed to show when the updates is made but I can't figure out how to see what information has changed after the update. Thanks!

I am sorry, I don’t know a way to see on NamUs what changes have been made. I have a file where I copied the information for this UID as it was in November ‘21 and I happened to notice that the profile has been modified and I compared my notes to the current information. It would be great if there was a way to see the changes made directly on NamUs…

Ah, that makes sense. I thought I was missing a feature on NamUs. Thanks for the reply!
