The 62 were still included in the final count though, right?
Eventually, yes. But, I can't remember the exact criteria that was used to declare a missing person as a victim of the hurricane. Lots of people called up and reported family members who had been out of touch, who might have been in the area, as possibly being victims, who probably weren't. (And, there was the problem of people who were victims of homicides in the New Orleans area, shortly after the storm, that were initially classified as homicides, before a political decision was made to re-designate everyone's death as "Katrina related.") I would not be surprised to learn later, that politics got involved in the Bahamas death toll count.
And, several bodies were recovered that were never identified. The number has gone down over the years, but it stands at around 30 the last time I heard.
Again, unless you've seen it, and experienced it firsthand, it's just almost impossible to imagine the difficulty of the task of making an accurate count of the dead after something like this, or to do definitive searches for victims. A point we had to keep making to our bosses in DC over and over again.
One day, I led a search for a missing employee in the vicinity of their residence (it was impossible to tell exactly where it had been located in the huge pile of debris, but we could smell that there were bodies close by). When after a day of searching, I had to tell my boss that it was impossible to know if the employee was in the debris or not, I was told that that was an unacceptable answer. Later, when he actually showed up, he told he finally realized why we couldn't' say for sure.
Based on the pictures and videos I am seeing of the Abacos, it's even worse, and will be even harder.
