The information contained in this listing is from his notes. He was only able to obtain the name and date of death for these individuals. In his notes he suggested that family members try contacting the county clerk's office for how to obtain other information on the individual if any is available. He, also, suggests contacting county historians to see if they may have any more information available.
Mark, himself, is deceased as of Sept. 7, 2009. I honor him by added his notes to this website to help others looking for family, as was his desire.
"History of the Stone House
Erected in 1868, the venerable Stone House, located upon the campus of The Pines Healthcare & Rehabilitation Center, 9822 Route 16, Machias, NY, is the sole surviving structure of the 19th Century Cattaraugus County Alms-House and Insane Asylum, which became the Cattaraugus County Home/Farm and Infirmary.....
The Stone House is a solemn memorial to the 123 (at least) souls buried in the paupers field just north of the Stone House on Rt. 16, across from Lime Lake. These former Indigent residents of the Stone House had no family or funds for interment in a "mainstream" cemetery."
