Still only two ruleouts.
MP5909 Rosemary Calandriello 08/25/1969 Monmouth NJ
MP7574 Sylvia Lwowski 09/06/1975 Richmond NY
Did anybody ever submit Valerie Cuccia, Denise Sheehy, or the other possibilities we've discussed?
It's still the same 3 names: Denise Sheehy, Rosemary Calandriello, and Sylvia Lwowski.Could someone name the current exclusion list for this Jane Doe? I'm not from the US so I can't see the exclusions by NamUs.
@othram, perhaps this case might be something for you?
Apparently, NY law changed regarding forensic genealogy when Othram worked on Franklin D. Feldman's case. They also identified George Seitz last year.Not sure if their contract also includes identifying UID but I thought Parabon were the only ones to be allowed to do genetic genealogy on NY cases? https://bronxjusticenews.com/exclus...any-to-perform-genetic-genealogy-in-new-york/
Thanks @Mrs. Badcrumble I hadn't realised and that's great. The more the merrier, I reckon!Apparently, NY law changed regarding forensic genealogy when Othram worked on Franklin D. Feldman's case. They also identified George Seitz last year.
Sandra Hopler seems to be the most likely match since it is known that she was headed to New York.Some possible matches:
