Police were last night searching for the car that belonged to the woman whose body was pulled out of waters near Prince George Wharf on Tuesday, along with the body of her young daughter.
The woman was identified as Amanda Seymour Burrows, 32, and her five-year-old daughter, Taja Burrows, according to police. They were residents of Stapledon Gardens.
The girl was a first grade student of St. John's College where news of her death shocked teachers, parents and students yesterday.
Police said the car is a dark colored Nissan Sunny, manufactured between 1997 and 1999.  The license plate number is 117033.
Royal Bahamas Defence Force marines pulled the mother and daughter from the waters at about 7:30 a.m. Tuesday. The young girl was found still wearing pajamas.
Police were last night trying to determine whether the woman drove herself and her daughter to the location where they eventually died.
Officer in charge of the Central Detective Unit Superintendent Paul Rolle told The Nassau Guardian yesterday that police had no new information regarding the deaths of the mother and daughter and would only reveal that a relative identified the bodies at the morgue.
Rolle also said he believed the woman was married, but could not say for sure. He also said that police did not have anyone in custody for questioning regarding the matter and had not as yet reclassified the deaths.
Police press liaison officer Sergeant Chrislyn Skippings said Tuesday that the bodies had no signs of injury and the deaths were being classified as sudden deaths.
The bodies were found floating near a defence force vessel by RBDF marines stationed at the dock.
Police presence increased in the area around the high security cruise ship dock after the bodies were found.
However, tourists milled about the area were seemingly unaware of the disturbing find so close to their port of entry.
Skippings said it was unlikely that the woman and young girl accessed the waters near the dock through the cruise ship port.
Rolle said officers were still out conducting their investigations up to press time yesterday evening.
