Jane Doe with Scandinavian Heritage – Need help

A Scandinavian woman was found deceased in Canada in 2009. The organization The DNA Doe Project has her DNA and are trying to get her name back but need help. If you have DNA done with places like Ancestry, My Heritage, 23&Me etc please upload your DNA to Gedmatch. It’s free and the team can use it to help find out who she is. Her closest match is only 44cm which unfortunately is not close enough to build a tree back and figure out who she is. Since she is the feature case this month you can also compare your Gedmatch kit number to see if you have any matching DNA to her. This is a wonderful organization that has brought closure to so many families.

On June 17, 2009 a hiker walking near the Trans-Canada Highway discovered the body of a White/Caucasian woman in a small, one-person tent located in a wooded area near Miller Rapids Road, Kenora, Ontario, Canada. The woman, believed to be Canadian, was dressed in hiking-type clothing, and equipment for rugged hiking and camping was found near the body. A forensic evaluation revealed the woman was 35 to 55-years-old, 5’ 4, 110 pounds, and had shoulder-length, light brown hair. Cause of death was determined to be accidental carbon monoxide poisoning from a hibachi stove found in the tent. During the autopsy it was discovered the deceased had undergone major reconstruction surgery of her jaw and face, which was most likely conducted in a major surgical hospital 20-30 years prior to her death. Investigators believe she had died in the tent one day to a week prior to being discovered.
