BERLIN — A Coos County woman believes that the human remains found off Berlin’s Kent Street last Thursday are her long missing brother. However, as of press time Monday, no identification had been released by the authorities.

While there has been no official word, Linda Coates of Lancaster, sister of the 65-year-old Berlin man who went missing last fall, said on her Facebook page that an autopsy performed by the N.H. Medical Examiner’s office had confirmed that body is that of her brother, George Cross.
