The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) went online with the Unidentified Decedent Reporting System (UDRS) mid 2007. Since then extensive efforts have been made to get all onboard.

It is now possible to generate state and county links to the UID's on the NamUs/UDRS database. Its as simple as going to the NamUs UDRS website help area and selecting the desired state and county from the drop down lists. The codes are generated immediately and a direct link to all local cases is created and ready to copy and paste onto any Web site. Two codes will be generated - one for the county and another seperate code for the state.

This service is ideal for local newspapers to add to their links page so readers can locate direct links to local cases listed on UDRS. It is, in essence, a local portal to the national system.

Another goal is for county governments, law enforcement and non profits to add the local level portal to their homepages.

Can you get your local entities to add the proper UDRS generated link to their local homepage?

We are currently gearing up for the official launch of the missing persons side of NamUs. The more links created, the better the chance for a speedy resolution to a missing and unidentified case.

A similar code, specific to the missing, will also be available.

Please forward this information to everyone you think can help spead the word and literally open as many doors as possible to this vital system.

Todd's calling to be a voice for missing and unidentified persons began when he solved the identity of the "Tent Girl" case, Barbara Hackman-Taylor, after a ten-year journey that ended in 1998.  View profile
