We would like to invite you to visit our website, The POORHOUSE STORY (a
clearinghouse for information about 19th century American poorhouses)at
http://www.poorhousestory.com

The OHIO section of our website has just been reorganized. We have created a
page for each county. So if you have recently visted the OHIO page, you may
need to click REFRESH (or key F5)in order to see the new TABLE OF COUNTY
page links.

We just posted some wonderful photographs! (Thanks to Sandy Malitz!)
And we have also just posted the WPA Inventory of poorhouse
(infirmary)records.

For those of you new to the site,
DIRECTIONS:
At the homepage (link above)click on POORHOUSES BY STATE, then click on
OHIO, then click on GEAUGA County on the Table.

There are some other pages on the site which may help you better understand
poorhouses. They are all linked (to the left)off the homepage and include:
HISTORY, LETTER TO GENEALOGISTS, and FEATURED ARTICLES.

Hope you enjoy the site!
