Doe ID: 'Bedford Jane Doe' Kathy Alston

Doe ID: 'Bedford Jane Doe' Kathy Alston<br /><br /><br />On October 6, 1971 a decomposing body of a woman was found off a logging road in a wooded area near Route 101 in Bedford, New Hampshire, an area now the site of the on-ramp from Route 101 to Kilton Road in Bedford. Because her body had been covered by tree branches not native to that area, police surmised that the woman had been murdered, and her killer had brought branches with them to cover her body. Due to the advanced decomposition, gathering details about the woman were tough. Despite several efforts over years, she remained unidentified and was dubbed 'Bedford Jane Doe'. Finally, DNA and genetic genealogy would lead the way to Bedford Jane Doe getting her name back.She was Kathy Alston, and this is her story. <br /><br />Visit <a href="https://dnadoeproject.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DNA Doe Project</a> to check out and help support the great work they are doing,<br /><br />This episode is sponsored by GEDMatch, whether you want to find out more about your family's history, help catch the bad guys we discuss on DNA: ID, or help give names to unidentified 'Does', Gedmatch has you covered. <a href="https://Gedmatch.com/DNAID" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Visit the Gedmatch website</a> today to get started.<br /><br />For all things DNA: ID, visit the show's homepage:<br />DNAIDpodcast.com<br /><br />To Support DNA: ID on Patreon, visit this link:<br />https://www.patreon.com/DNAID<br /><br />To buy DNA ID Merch, visit this link:<br />https://www.customizedgirl.com/s/dnaidpodcast<br /><br />Follow DNA: ID on Social Media<br /><br />on Twitter at- https://twitter.com/DNAIDPodcast<br /><br />on Facebook at- https://www.facebook.com/DNA-ID-True-Crime-Podcast-103667495017418<br /><br />on Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/dnaidpodcast/
