Who Was the Woman on Sea Ship Place? The 1993 Palm Coast Cold Case
The Woman on Sea Ship Place Still Has No Name.
On January 10, 1993, two boys chasing a basketball into the woods at the end of Sea Ship Place in Palm Coast, Florida, found the remains of a woman. For almost 30 years the description of her was wrong. In 2021 DNA showed it, and genealogy has since traced her family to Edgefield and Aiken, South Carolina. Her murder is unsolved, and she still has no name.

Before you watch
This is a real case about a real man, Who Was the Woman on Sea Ship Place?, and a family that waited 26 years to learn his name. I've tried to tell it with care. Everything comes from the Sheriff's Office and published reporting, and there are no graphic images.
It's also my very first episode. It's a labor of love, and I've been working really hard on it. Please be kind, in the comments and to each other.
