I have currently been working on entering the records pertaining to the Poorhouses or Poor Farms of Morgan, Owen and Putnam Counties.
Just completed are the listing for the prisoners held in the Putnamville Prison during 1920. Everyone should take a look at these names as they ARE NOT simply men from Putnam County. I have found several Owen County surnames listed as I typed them. I will begin working on the list for the year 1930, however as this listing consists of 28 pages; it will take me a little longer to complete.
I have spent some time here lately in going through our pages and discarding those that weren't coming up or links to outside pages that weren't working. If you notice any, please let me know.
As I know we have recently gained new visitors to the website, allow me to invite those persons to please submit anything that you feel would be of interest to another researcher EVEN IF you don't see a formed category for it. This doesn't mean that an area cannot be created. If anyone has a suggestion for a new subject area for our site, please let me know and I will create it! My own personal researching is currently concentrated on the surnames of BALDWIN, CARTER, GOSS, LOCKHART, McCULLOUGH, MURPHY and TRUAX. Anyone having anything on these lines, please feel free to contact me.
