As a USGenWeb volunteer for Claremont, I was contacted several months ago regarding the Alms House. The requester had reason to believe it was in Claremont. I had never heard of it nor did the president of the Claremont Historical Society, who probably knows more about Claremont's history than anyone. The person requesting the info was looking for information regarding someone who died in Claremont in the 1860's. I did find a newspaper record of the death as occurring in Claremont, but found nothing regarding an Alms House. No one at the city clerk's office had any knowledge of it either. Do you have a date for the death of your great-great-grandfather? If so, I might be able to find something for you. Wayne
