NamUs #UP1498 is an unidentified person.

According to NamUs, her details are as follows:

She had $27 in bills. She had "Zena" blue jeans, a dark blouse with gold threads, no bra, no belt, and black briefs. Her footwear was sneaker size 7.5. She had two neck chains, one is a gold metal-choker chain with 0.5" letter T. She had a ring, white metal with a white stone and a bracelet of a brown tortoise shell. Pictures of jewelry and footwear are at NamUs.


Case research/expanded details:

The NamUs description says that she died in 1980, meaning before July 1st, 1980 -- the day her body was found. I found one newspaper article discussing this case that may pinpoin the time frame better. According to George McCarthy, writing in the May 6th, 1982 edition of the Asbury Park Press, this woman may have died in early June of 1980. Her age in that article is listed as 25-30. Her death was thought to be caused "by several blows to the head."

Note: "Brockton Road" should likely be Brockton Avenue.
Another headline from July 2nd, 1980 out of the same newspaper states that the body was pulled from a creek. The person was found by someone out on a walk. The Doe, in this case, is described as about 5'8" between 150 to 155 pounds and with auburn hair.
