Here's another newspaper article that has some more information. The ring was given to employees to increase magazine circulation. https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-herald/194250206/

I did a search for Local Reader's Service and found that it is/was a company based in Terre Haute, Indiana, which represented various magazines and publishers, according to this court document: https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/443/91/1953607/ There seems to be quite a...

This news article November 1908 says "Butch" Huffman was captured. https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-cincinnati-enquirer/193877923/ Unfortunately, this follow up article states it was the wrong man. https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-plain-dealer/193878057/ That's the last bit I could...

I talked to the detective. He wanted to know how I heard it came to the UPS distribution center and never heard of Websleuths. The only information he could provide is that the hand was sent elsewhere for additional testing.

Interesting! I live nearby and don't recall hearing anything about this. Let me see if I can find any more info.

Another article indicating the medical examiner thought the body was a white male 5'4-5'6 based on the shoes. Article clipped from The Kalamazoo Gazette

Here's a newspaper article on the finding. It appears they thought there was more than one person in the vehicle. https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-monroe-evening-news/191995842/

The belt buckle looks more like it reads "Sinaloa" to me. I searched Fry's Food Stores and they have multiple locations across Arizona. I would assume the membership card was unreadable or a dead end.

Some more information here, mostly on her children. It's a tough read. https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2026/02/07/cold-case-sibling-reunion-howard-county

Hi Diane, that John Doe was ruled out via dentals, I'm not sure why it hasn't been updated on Namus yet.

Found this newspaper article from October 15, 1992. Description seems to match, though he is referred to as Joe Martin Riley in the article. https://www.newspapers.com/article/anchorage-daily-news/189481730/

Does anyone think it would be beneficial to contact the Watch and Clock Museum in Lancaster County, PA? They do take research requests, but it's $40. Research Requests - National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors, Inc.

Hi all, so I misunderstood that there was another doe that could possibly be Farren, here's the correction from Chris just so we are all on the same page. "Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you all know so there's no confusion: The Doe that they believed was linked to Farren was #UP5901 (Attic...

There is another John Doe they strongly believe to be him, but need to see if dentals are available to compare as the John Doe they suspect to be him was cremated. IMO it has to be a doe that is not listed on Namus since @AirForceVet24 mentioned above that there is a "link" to Farren that makes...

Hi all, Our friend Chris is still working away behind the scenes with @AirForceVet24 and I just wanted to share an update from Sgt Rand in Grant County, Oregon: "We thought the body they found in an attic near by where he was living was Farren but the dental records did not match. We also...
