Fantastic news! Hopefully the beginning of many more answers.
From link above...
He (Julie’s brother) said he had never heard of the Princess Blue case.

We asked if Julie could have had any connection to Houston or to Robert E. Lee High School.

"I just found out last night from my sister, Shelly, that Shelly met Julie's husband at one point, years back, and she said he was from Houston," Danny said.

Danny believes Julie got married at 18, shortly after she left home and headed for New Orleans. Danny was 17 years old at the time.

"That's the last thing I remember of her, her giving me a hug, telling me she loved me, and she broke down in tears and walked away, and that's the last time I saw her," Danny said.

Detectives still don't know what Julie's connection to the class ring could have been, the ring that made her case so mysterious. Now, the real investigation begins.

She sure doesn't look like the sketches.

Agree. I would have never put these together. Julie looks nothing like the recon, unless she changed her appearance drastically between the photo and when she went missing.

How is this case a "match!"? Was a WS'r involved or is the match prefix an error?

Probably just an error, says identified now

My uncle is a black man, and my aunt is Irish. My cousin looks identical to her mother as she is very white and has similar features, but unlike her mom she tans in the summer. Genetics are a wild thing.

Same with my granddaughter. My daughter is full European (Hungarian and Polish) her ex is light skin. My granddaughter looks like us, her teen sister with a different white mother looks more like her father.

My granddaughter has Shirley Temple hair, similar color, dirty blond.

Wouldn't the marriage be pretty easy to find on ancestry or something similar?
So glad she has been identified

Normally yes but maybe she wasn't married in legal way.
Maybe she just refered to him as her husband but never married him in papers.

Well, maybe she could look through the males of the Robert E. Lee H.S. yearbook, and see if any of the pics match with what she remembers Julie's husband looked like. I mean, assuming from her sister that he was from Houston, as she has said.

I did not see a side-by-side of the clearer photo of Julie and the sketch drawing so I made one. I personally see a slight resemblance.

It's possible that the ring was given to her, maybe in the timeframe in which she went missing up until she died.

She shouldn’t look for her sister, but rather for a male who fits the timeframe and maybe reminds her of the „husband“ she saw many years ago.

I would think the authorities are considering that the ring might have a connection to the killer.

Just catching up on all this news! I'm relieved she's been ID'd. Thank God that her family can have peace, even with the sadness of knowing that she's gone. I was hoping she'd be ID'd or matched. Glad that she has. That ring holds some clues to her death, I believe. Like others, I feel it may belong to her "husband."

Is it possible Julie never set foot in New Orleans like she intended to do? Maybe she met with foul play by her husband close to or in his hometown of Houston (which is only 25 minutes from Manvel, where Julie was found).

She left home at 17 and went to New Orleans. I just don't get a good feeling about teens moving to NOLA. In the late 50 and early 60's, there were numerous movies about girls moving to New Orleans. It did not go well. New Orleans was known to attract young women. (Same as NYC, Los Angeles etc)

One post says she may not have attended high school.

RIP Julie
