FYI: Reading the Haverhill Gazette (Massachusetts) for Oct. 5-ll, 2000 page one and 9(article entitled "Disappearing graveyard" by Jean MacDougall-Tattan, staff writer) I came across an article about a Cemetery, long forgotten, at the Glynn Memorial Nursing Home, which was, during the city's almshouse between 1828 and 1852. I am going to list the names and dates of those buried in the paupers' graves according to this article. I have always noticed that Haverhill, MA has had lots of Maine folks moving there and vice-versa and perhaps this will help someone. Or it can be forwarded to someone else that you might know to be interested. ".....Joseph Ingham spent three years doing genealogical research in the special collections department of the Haverhill Public Library, commissioning a granite marker saying Glynn Memorial Cemetery, .... His research revealed 13 bodies buried beside what was then the city's almshouse between 1828 and 1852. He documented these burials: Mrs. John Shaw, April 23, 1828; an unknown woman Ingham named Jane in July 1830; Hannah Harriman, April 8, 1831; Dorothy Norris, July 24, 1832; Anna Copps, July 3, 1833, John Gould, January 24, 1836; John Gilmore, April 27, 1837; Charles Durcant, June 3, 1837; Jeremiah F. Young, Nov 29, 1837; John Sergant, Nov. 27, 1837, Peggy Malcomb, 1837 and Amasa Meeks, Feb 2, 1852." There is, later in the article, a list of more names for which records show coffins and robes were bought by the almshouse. " ....It names Mrs. Gile's child, Robert Case, L. Benton, Mrs. Giles, A. Foster, Sarah Clark, E. B. Orne, Mrs. Cross, E. Lufkin child, Mrs. Ann Quimby, F. Wiley's wife, Amasa Meeks, Mrs. Hume, Mr. Kent from 1840 through 1857." You may be able to contact the Gazette through their website www.HGazette.com and read the article for yourselves if you need more info( I haven't checked). Or I could make copies of it here to send out. Whatever, I hope this might help someone somewhere...have a nice rainy day(s)! J of J & J
