Surnames: Farrell Radigan Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3FC.2ACI/3874 Message Board Post: My great-uncle John Farrell was in the St. Croix County Poorhouse/Asylum in Star Prairie, WI for a number of years (1900-1920+). I couldn't find the asylum in the census in 1930. Does anyone know whether it closed/moved, and if so, when? If someone died there, was there a particular cemetery where they were buried if family didn't claim them? Thanks for any info! Heidi
