Several are buried there. Who are you looking for? I have seen articles refering to the "pest house". I am wondering was the county farm and the pest house the same, or were they two different buildings? I know the poor farm is where you went if you were desitute and had no family to live with. What criteria did you have to meet to go to the pest house? Was it for diseased people with no family? I do subscribe to the list, so any answer can be posted on the Henderson mail list and not go through rootsweb.
