Unidentified Black / African American Female
Age 18-22
from Neavitt, Maryland

Skull recovered from the waterline in Balls Creek in 1994. The skull was originally taken the Smithsonian for an anthropology exam with the OCME involvement and determined to be historical, possibly from a known Indian burial site where the remains were located . The remains were reevaluated in January of 2025 and it was determined the original assessment was possibly wrong. The OCME was asked to take possession of the remains for an updated anthropology exam and possible ID. It is now believed that the skull may have become stuck on the shoreline after being in the water for some time.
