[John/Jane Doe]

Ginny Erickson seems like a very good possibility for this Jane Doe.

According to Doe Network the upper jaw (maxilla) of UFOR865 was not located. The photo of Snow Creek Jane Doe on oregonlive.com clearly shows both the upper jaw/maxilla and lower jaw/mandible present, ie a complete cranium.

Are there two cases or is the information on Doe Network wrong?

I was wondering the same thing... ETA: The way it reads, maybe it means the records for the upper jaw can not be located?

@Dr. Nici Vance is there any possibility the presence of /lack of jaw could be clarified?

I really hope the skull wasn't cremated or lost. Genetic genealogy is probably the only way to identify this woman.

Long shot, but maybe Patricia Otto? I know, she is suspected to be another JD but timeline fits and the skull features and dentition (if you imagine the teeth that fell out postmortem) would also fit well.

She doesn't have dental charts available though, right? That's why she can't be compared to the Finley Creek one.

PO has dentals available that are derived from an old x ray of her
