The skeletonized body of an adult female was discovered in a sleeping bag, within a known camp site off of NW St. Helens Road outside of Portland, Oregon.

Medical Examiner seeks help identifying woman found deceased in NW Industrial district

The woman was White, with wavy or curly hair, between the ages of 30 and 50. She was between 5 and 5.5 feet tall, and no longer had her own teeth. She may have worn dentures.

When found, the woman wore a small red Nike DriFit t-shirt, with the word "ELITE" printed on the front, and a medium blue Ralph Lauren Active fleece jacket with black trim.

I think Linda Peterson looks similar, but no notes about missing teeth or dental issues but visually looks like she may have sunken lips similar to how one might appear if they required or wore dentures? The tip of the nose is very different, but if the remains were skeletonized I imagine there is room for error there.

Good find! I think that is a great possibility it's Linda Peterson. I talked to the ME's office the other day as I needed information to find out if this is a missing person we know. The news has varying information that is NOT what they told me. After seeing your Linda's information just now, I think this is worth calling in.

I just submitted Connie Ellen Carr as a potential lead.

Actually I like both suggestions. Linda Peterson and Connie Ellen Carr.

 

[Bit of hope]

Could this be Alice Bell Dorton, a little older and she had tattoos, maybe no longer visible on the remains (skeletonized).

Skeletal remains of a woman were found inside a sleeping bag located in a campsite off of NW St. Helens Road outside of Portland on November 13, 2019.

Very little is known about the woman’s features, as the report stated that her remains were, “not recognizable.” However, the Multnomah County Medical Examiner’s Office said the woman was believed to be under the age of 60, between 5 feet 1 inches and 5 feet 7 inches tall, with strawberry blond hair.

The bodies of 10 people remain unidentified in Portland since 2000

While the circumstances surrounding their deaths remain shrouded in mystery, this is what is known about the nameless individuals discovered in Portland since 2000.
