We just posted a rather extensive history of the Hardin County Infirmary which we copied from a History of Hardin County (the full text of which can be found on the internet at the Heritage Pursuits website)... on the Ohio page of The POORHOUSE STORY website (a clearinghouse for information about 19th century American poorhouses) at http://www.poorhousestory.com (This excerpt includes the names of many of the officials involved with the administration of that facility.) Many of you may have visited the site recently; so when you get there you may need to click REFRESH on your browser to see the new photo. For those new to the site: DIRECTIONS: at the homepage (link above) click on POORHOUSES BY STATE, then click on OTHER STATES, then click on OHIO on the table of states. If you scroll down past the pictures, you will see a link to this page with a yellow NEW arrow pointing to it. Hope you enjoy! Linda Crannell (aka=The Poorhouse Lady)
