Hi Folks, First of all I'd like to invite you all to subscribe to the email newsletter of the Boylston Historical Society and Museum. The PotpourrEMAIL is free, emailed once each month, and contains articles, tidbits from our archives and more. You can view back issues of newsletter on the BHSM web site.[go to the archives section] http://users.rcn.com/boyhisoc/ Many times the newsletter will contain information on people who lived outside the town of Boylston. The December issue is an example. I includes all 1939 deaths in the town as taken from the 1939 annual town report. Most of the deaths are of people who resided elsewhere....they had all died in the Sanitarium here. It was built in 1932 and the nurses lived in a house on the property. Soooooo, if you are looking for someone's death and the town clerk says they have nothing....try Boylston...your relative may have been in the Sanitarium [mainly tuberculosis patients]. If you would like to subscribe to the email newsletter you can send your email address to me or mail it to the musuem boyhisoc@rcn.com Betty -------------------------------------------------------- From the 1939 Town Report [Boylston] Deaths - whole number 41 including still births Date - Name - Residence - Cause of Death February 2 - Albert Plante, Winchedon, Pulmonary Tuberculosis 6 - Marianne [Frechette] Kayer, Leicester, Pulmonary Tuberculosis 17 - Augusta Hanna [Seamon] Knight, Boylston, Found dead in bed 17- John Theodore Paanonen, Leominster, Pulmonary Tuberculosis 26 - Agnes Ingeborg Alice Scott, Boylston, Broncho Pneumonia 27 - Lena Veronica Montville, Uxbridge, Pulmonary Tuberculosis March 2 - Edgar Nichols, Boylston, Pagets Desease 7 - Carrie Elenor [Lane] Bassett.
