UNIDENTIFIED VICTIM LOCATED IN NEW YORK
Unidentified Remains
Date Located: October 29, 1983
City Found: Medina, New York
County Found: Orleans County
Estimated Date of Death: 1980-1981
Cause of Death: Not Disclosed.
The partially mummified, partially skeletonized remains of this woman were found off of South Gravel Road (Route 63) in the town of Shelby (part of Medina, NY) on October 29, 1983 near the Gennessee County line.
The spot that her remains were recovered is part of the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge, a 4,000 acre wetland that is offten refered to as the "Alabama Swamps" by locals. During the spring months, much of the area is submerged in water due to the spring thaw; during the fall months, the area is popular with local hunters. It also features several trails, elevated trails for the wet months and overlooks that were popular spots for both nature lovers and local youth.
The area is somewhat isolated. Route 63 serves as a main route to get to the Lake Ontario shore from the New York State Thruway. It is also frequently used as a truck route by tractor trailers. At night though, the road can become very deserted and there are no homes or buildings located on the road for several miles in either direction. Also of note, passing motorists would not consider it out of the ordinary to see a car pulled off the side of the road because hunters, hikers, fishermen/woman would frequently park on the road shoulder to enter the wildlife refuge.
There is however the Iroquois Job Corps., a residential career training and education facility for young people between the ages of 16 and 24 located about 2 miles away.
