I searched the unidentified forum and didn't see her listed.

Distinguishing Characteristics: Her natural hair color was dark brown or black. She may have had a peculiar stride due to possible bow-leggedness. Sometime before her death, she fractured the top of both feet. Both fractures had healed, but those injuries might have caused limping. She also had previously fractured the pinkie finger of her left hand, and had fractured the first rib on her right side. This would have caused a stiff or sore right shoulder. Lastly, she had healed fractures of the nose. These injuries occurred prior to her death, and are not associated with her death.

sounds to me like a long term victim of domestic violence. husband probably did her in and never reported her missing, just telling people "she left me for good without saying a word".
 
Tamala Longway went missing on an unknown date. She wasn't reported missing until 2008. Some sites indicate she went missing in 2003 and some say around 2000. This leads me to believe that no one really knows. Her circumstances are a good fit with this woman as are the age, dentals, possible abuse and location. What do you think? http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/l/longway_tamala.html

This woman was found about a mile away from where I live. This area of Chattanooga is full of homeless/transient people, drug dealers, prostitutes flea bag motels, etc, plus it's near the conjunction of I-24 and US 27. This woman might have been dumped out of a car that came off the interstate, as Cannon Ave. is next to the Rossville Blvd. exit. Just wish someone knew who she was.

The Hamilton County ME site says:
The dental hygiene of this individual is extremely poor. She has a total of 12 teeth, and all show signs of advanced decay and periodontal disease. All of her front teeth are missing, presumably due to periodontal disease. She might have complained of a tooth ache on her left lower jaw, due to an abscess that was active at the time of her death. Dental hygiene this poor is most often, but not always, associated with lower socioeconomic status.

So she quite possibly was part of that population.

She had hair ties on her left wrist. I am right-handed, and I always have a hair elastic on my right wrist. I assume part of this is that I typically wear a watch on my left wrist, but for others who do this, which wrist do you have the hair ties on? Could she be left handed?
 
@Nancy Drew RN i usually put mine on my right wrist. Reason: i use both hands to sweep all the hair back. I then transfer hair to right hand, use my left hand to remove the ponytail holder from the right wrist straight over the 1st loop of hair gathered for the ponytail and then use the left hand to make the next loop around with the elastic, switch to my right for the final loop with the elastic. (I actually had to do this to remember, its 2nd nature) I could do it with the elastic over the left wrist but was akward. Great thought on the hand she favors.
The only concern would be who parented this UID and what hand they favored. My mother is a lefty so I've learned to be ambidextrous. For all i know I have an odd approach to putting my hair in a ponytail, its 2nd nature to me though. I do write with right hand...

I've taken care of my teeth, yet due to a connective tissue disorder; I still lost them. They crack at the gum-line. I have caps that have also snapped off.

I have not had dental insurance for 5 years. I needed to have a few teeth extracted but couldn't afford to at $350 each tooth.

My hub finally got us dental insurance last year but it takes being on a plan one year before they'll cover anything.

I saw a local dentist for a consult that cost me $125 for a panorama xray, then went to a dental school for another consult which was $45. Next I'm going to Philadelphia for the university dental school where they'll pull all of my teeth then hopefully dentures on the bottom with implants and a partial on the top; depending on what it will cost.

I know other people in my shoes that also cant afford dental care; people who are not homeless so I could see this happening to someone not homeless back in 99 when she was found.
 
This girl is younger but the glasses are so similar? The doe had severely deteriorated teeth, but the MP was a drug user (heroin etc). Would that cause premature teeth decay?

Nice observation!

I'm right-handed too. This sounds identical to how I ponytail my hair. Great description!

I took just a quick glance at the pics in your post and agree there are striking similarities. Who is she?
 
Could this be Lori Jane Elbin Reaves Richardson

For future reference:

Lori Jane Eblin Reaves Richardson
