DNA, dentals, and fingerprints are all in NamUs.

One rule out:

Larry Morris 1949 Wyoming
 
I spoke to Doug Matthews of the Uinta Co Sheriffs Office - he confirms this John Doe is still unidentified and that he will pass on information for the DNA Doe Project to the proper investigators. (He also mentioned they recently ID’d another Uinta Co John)
 
Leaving this here because I feel it's important to JD's case and might be a possible ID for him (though I'm probably getting my hopes up).
Wyoming Sheriff's Office Asks Public for Information
The Uinta County Sheriff's Office wants to speak with anyone who may have employed, worked with or otherwise known Everett McMillan in or around Uinta County during the mid to late 1980s.

McMillan was born in 1923, according to Sgt. Brooke Hale.
JD's estimated age range is 63-68, and his year of birth would have to be around the 1920's. McMillan was born in 1923 and that would put his age around 65 when JD was found. This would match up to JD's estimated age range. If you compare the photos of Everett to JD's reconstruction they have a very uncanny resemblance. The Uinta County sheriff's office said they'll be releasing more information soon so I'll be keeping a close eye on the news when that information is released. Crossing my fingers.
