Wayne, The information that I have is from my great great grandfather's death record (which I obtained from the N.H. Vital Records Office). My great great grandfather, Aaron Walker, died on October 27, 1921. His death record states that he was an "inmate" of the Sullivan County Alms House for three years, and his place of death is listed as "Unity, N.H." (I therefore assumed that the Alms House was in Unity). The cause of death was Arterio Sclerosis. Before entering the Alms House, Aaron lived in Newport, N.H.. I hope that this information can help both of us with the search -- please let me know what you find! If you have access to such things, I would love to find his obituary.
