    1. [WVJackson] 1900 Jackson County Infirmary
    2. Joyce Dever
    3. Hi. I was just looking at the 1900 census images on Genealogy.com. I found my great-grandmother Julia Ann GOLDEN BOSWORTH. She is listed as an "inmate" of the Jackson County, WV Infirmary. Does anybody know what kind of infirmary this was.....Insane Asylum?.....Poorhouse?....Medical Facility?.. Also, does anyone have any idea WHY they would be listed as "inmates"? I also noticed, that many other "inmates" had their children there with them, and they were listed as being at school. Thanks for any info. Joyce in Seattle
