My Grandfather Alonzo Odell, and his sisters were placed into the poorhouse as young children. I am looking for as much information about them as possible but haven't been able to find much. I hope someone else may have clues to this poorhouse and the people that were committed to it. Thanks for reading this. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
