TEXAS CITY, Texas -- A man found dead in the waters off Bolivar Peninsula over the weekend was identified by the Galveston County Medical Examiner on Monday as a resident of Gilchrist.
Herman Thomas Moseley, 48, lived in a trailer park at Rollover Pass on the Peninsula's east end. His body was found on Saturday by Texas game wardens in an area on the bay side of Bolivar across from Crystal Beach known as Goat Island.
The medical examiner listed his cause of death as drowning. Moseley was one of 32 people in the Houston area killed because of Hurricane Ike.
While he was identified, the identity of a woman found on Pelican Island in Galveston on Saturday remains a mystery.
The woman is between 30 and 40 years old and is 4 feet, 10 inches tall. She was wearing a black-and-white beaded ankle bracelet and a black shirt.
The woman also has a small web between the second and third toe on her left foot and a 7-inch scar above her hip, said the medical examiner. Her body was discovered by people riding 4-wheelers along the northern shore of Pelican Island.
Anyone with information on the woman should call the Galveston County Medical Examiner's office at (409) 935-9299.
