Law enforcement were told by witnesses at that time the unknown woman was last seen at a truck stop in Corbin, Kentucky, trying to get a ride to North Carolina. 

In October last year, after putting information about "red-headed Jane Doe"  asking for the public's help identifying her, the family of Espy Regina Black-Pilgrim contacted the KSP.

DNA samples were taken from family members of Pilgrim's family.  

It was a match.
