At a Georgetown Cemetery, you’ll see many names, but one gravestone has the words “some mother’s boy” etched into it.
The teen buried there was killed by a train back on April 1, 1921, but to this day, has never been identified.
It has been 96 years since the accident, and the boy struck by the train has never been identified.
“To my knowledge, I don’t know of any other cases at this time where we have unidentified remains we’ve not been able to solve in Scott County,” said Assistant Chief Robert Swanigan with the Georgetown Police Department.

On Friday, the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NAMUS) will attempt to solve the mystery.
They are exhuming the body and hoping that DNA evidence could match this victim with a family.
“He’s not from Georgetown. He deserves to go home to where he was born and raised,” said Scott County Coroner John Goble.
The FBI recently started processing these cases for free. It used to cost up to $7,000.
