    3. Hi Beverly I believe that the Genesee County Infirmary was a part of the Genesee County Farm. From an old plat book, I found that it was located in Burton Twp near South Saginaw Street and Hemphill Road. It would have taken care of those who were too ill to care for themselves and had no family or other resources. I do not know of any available Records. I will try tomorrow to see if the Perry Archives at the Sloan Museum may have anything about the infirmary. I believe that the infirmary was eventually replaced by Walter Winchester Hospital, which closed in the 1960's.
