Episode 44 - On the morning of May 3rd, 1975, a farmer stumbled across something that they would never forget. A body was floating face-down in a river. Authorities came to the scene and recovered the body only to find that it belonged to a woman who was bound and wrapped in cloth and towels. For nearly five decades, the identity of this woman and the circumstances of her death remained unknown. She came to be known as the Nation River Lady and for years it seemed her case would never be solved. However, through the use of forensic genealogy the case was cracked, providing long-awaited answers.
