Since our founding in 2017, DNA Doe Project has worked on more than 200 cases of unidentified remains. Among our success stories are the very first identifications made using investigative genetic genealogy.
At DNA Doe Project, we don’t just take on the ‘easy’ cases — we accept those from every community, regardless of circumstance, racial or gender identity, or cause of death. It can take months or years to identify these individuals, but we don’t give up. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to maintain their name and identity, even in death. We work every day to make that reality.
We’re featuring Lincoln County Rail Car John Doe, who needs the public’s help to share his face and story. Check out our social media post about this case and the full case details on our website here.
The public can also help by uploading their DNA profiles to GEDmatch.com, FamilyTreeDNA.com, and DNAJustice.org. Find out how here.

“Everyone is someone’s child and has family, no matter what path their life has followed. I feel we’ve become almost caretakers for these lost souls until they can be returned to their family.”
