Police say Miss Godden, who would have been 29 yesterday, had become
"disconnected" from her family but is believed to have disappeared from the
Swindon area about eight years ago.
Officers have been scouring databases for more than a week in a bid to work
out who was buried at the Cotswold beauty spot where the remains were
recovered.
They were identified using DNA.
The remains were found during painstaking excavation work at a site at
Baxter's Farm, Eastleach, around 17 miles from where Miss O'Callaghan's body
was discovered.
The discovery came two days after police found the body of Miss O'Callaghan, a
22-year-old personal assistant from Swindon, near the Uffington White Horse in
Oxfordshire last month.

An inquest heard last week how Miss O'Callaghan is likely to have died from
head injuries.
Taxi driver Christopher Halliwell, 47, who has appeared in court charged with
her murder, also told police about the second site.
Miss O'Callaghan had been out with friends before she disappeared on March 19.
She was last seen alive in CCTV footage filmed close to the Suju nightclub,
only half a mile from the flat she shared with her boyfriend, Kevin Reape, 25.
She had sent a text message to her partner on the night of her disappearance,
saying: "Where are you? x."
Halliwell was arrested at a taxi rank at an Asda supermarket in Swindon.
