Subject: [OHNOBLE-L] POORHOUSE Information
Date: Sun, 2 Mar 2003 19:29:43 -0600
We would like to invite you to re-visit our website, The POORHOUSE STORY (a
clearinghouse for information about 19th century American poorhouses) at
http://www.poorhousestory.com
We have just published a link to some poorhouse information which we found
on a wonderful site which we just discovered -- The Ohio Memory Project. It
is an illustration of the Noble County Infirmary.
DIRECTIONS:
At the homepage (link above) click on POORHOUSES BY STATE, then on OHIO on
the table of states, then on your county on the table of counties. If you
have been to the website recently you may have to click REFRESH or RELOAD on
the browser to see the new information.
There are other pages on the site which may give you some interesting
perspective on poorhouses. They are off the homepage and include: the
HISTORY page and the LETTER TO GENEALOGISTS as well as FEATURED ARTICLES.
There are great tips for researching poorhouse records for yourself on the
RECORDS page; and you might want to subscribe to our (almost) monthly
newsletter (which you can do in the lower right corner of the homepage).
The information on our site will only grow through the submissions of
generous readers. If you would like to e-mail me ... please do so off-list
because I cannot maintain subscriptions to as many lists as we post messages
on. (You can use an e-mail link off one of our web pages.)
We hope you enjoy the site!
Thanks,
Linda Crannell
