About Me

Layout made by Carolyn
11/27/07 - Galveston Police Still Need help w/Riley Ann Sawyers I talked to investigators today, and they are wanting to talk to anyone that knew Riley, her parents, etc., after her birth. They are trying to reconstruct her whole life. If you knew Riley and members of her family, step family, please contact the Galveston County Sheriff's Office at :
[email protected] or 1-866-248-8477
Like Maj Tuttoilmondo told me, "Every little bit of information we get, no matter how trivial it may seem, might be a critical piece of the puzzle we need to bring final resolution to this case."
Please pass this information on to any others that may have known the family.
If you have any information on Baby Grace, please contact the Galveston County Sheriff's Office at

Please help identify me, someone must know me
On Monday, October 29, 2007, a fisherman in Galveston Bay found a blue utility box washed ashore on an uninhabited island. Inside the box, my body was wrapped in plastic bags.
I was wearing a white t-shirt, with a short pink jacket tied in the front over it, along with a matching layered skirt. My tennis shoes were white, with pink and purple flowers on them (size 8 1/2). I used to run and play in them, and they would light up when I walked. I had long blond or light brown, wavy hair, down to the middle of my back.
Since noone has claimed me, the Sheriffs here in Galveston, Texas, have named me Baby Grace. I had been dead for at least 2 weeks when they found me, and a forensic dentist said I am between 2 and 3 years old. I could be from anywhere, not just from Galveston. Since Galveston is a tourist area, with a transient population, maybe I came through as a tourist? The Gulf Intercoastal Waterway where I was found in the box is also a major commercial port, with a lot of sea-going vessels moving in and out.
They are working really hard to find out who I am, and to make sure I get a proper burial. People are now calling from all over the country. The FBI is even helping. Someone knows me - is it you?

John Mitchiner, with Texas EquuSearch, digs a hole for the “Baby Grace” cross on the island where her body was found. Sheriff’s deputies joined them to take the cross to the small island in Galveston Bay following a vigil Sunday,Nov 4, 2007.

Marlene Visser, an artist from South Africa, visited the official Baby Grace website and submitted the below sketch of Baby Grace, revised from the official sketch done by the police sketch artist. It offers a bit of a different perspective on our darling child, and may help a bit more to identify her.

Marlene has an "unofficial" Baby Grace website at http://baby.grace.50megs.com/
