She had been there for eight months, and despite efforts at the time, she could never be identified. The remains were kept at IU in Bloomington. Through a grant, the coroner’s office began to look at cold cases and recently did extensive DNA testing. At roughly the same time, a member of the young mother’s family happened to take an interest in genealogy and a connection was made.
