I had to pass this along. it has a very good site about infirmary/poorhouses and some records . Gloria We have just posted a photograph of the DARKE County Home on the OHIO page of The POORHOUSE STORY website. This is a clearinghouse for information about 19th century American Poorhouses at http://www.poorhousestory.com If you go to the homepage (link above) just click on POORHOUSES BY STATE, then on OTHER STATES and then click on OHIO on the table of states. There you will see a great deal of information already posted about poorhouses in other counties in OHIO.(If you have been to the site recently, you may need to click REFRESH on your browser to see the new material.) Hope you enjoy the site! Thanks, Linda Crannell (aka=The Poorhouse Lady)
