The case of Albert Napoleon Williams remains a poignant example of an unclaimed person. Mr. Williams' body was discovered on May 14, 2016, in Atlanta, Georgia. His remains were located in the entryway of a vacant business building, which appeared to have been his place of refuge for some time. His death was determined to be from natural causes.
Extensive efforts were made to locate Mr. Williams' family members. These included searches conducted through law enforcement channels, publicly accessible records, private searches, and a thorough evaluation of previous jail or prison records and medical records. Unfortunately, these searches yielded no identifiable family or next of kin.
With no relatives identified, the County took responsibility for Mr. Williams' burial. His case was handled by the Fulton County Medical Examiner's Office, under case number 16-1034, and is recorded in NamUs under the identifier UCP2613.
