The Worcester County Sheriff's Office confirms that human remains were found in a marshy area near the South Point area of Worcester County.

They were discovered Sunday night. 

The remains have decomposed so it will take time to positively identify the remains. 

The sheriff's office did say the remains were found not far from Carefree Lane - where 77-year-old Helen David went missing last Memorial Day. 

No confirmation on if the remains are that of the missing David.
