I am seeking additional information on the Jackson County Pauper Farm and its burial site or cemetery and any records that might have survived. There are some references to it on the roostweb.com board from 1999 that it is/was off Highway 82 at the current county prison farm. I just recently matched up information that the oldest sister of one of my great grandmothers and the aunt's husband are buried there. I found their death certificates on the Georgia Archives Virtual Vault web site.
Mary N. Crow b.c. October 1847 Clarke County, Georgia, and John W. Maddox b. c. February 1845 Georgia married in Oconee County, Georgia, November 16, 1876. She was the oldest daughter of James Crow and Frances Mary Ann Allen who married in Clarke County, Georgia in 1846. There was a large family and I am trying to find out what happened to all of the children after 1880. They worked in the mills and moved around rather than farmed in one place. This James Crow family was in Clarke County in 1850 and 1860 and in Greene County in 1870 and 1880.
John and Mary N. (Mollie/Molly)are on the 1880 Oconee County census, in Newton County in 1900, not found in 1910, and living on the pauper farm, north of the Jeffersona and Commerce Road,on the 1920 Jackson County Census. She died as Mollie Maddox January 2, 1921. He died as John Maddox April 29, 1924, cancer of the face. Both were buried on the pauper farm according to their death certificates. According to the census they had no children. She was Mrs. John Maddox of Commerce, Georgia, when her brother, Stephen Crowe, died in Augusta, Georgia, in 1913. Still seeking her other brothers and sisters. I am not currently subscribed to the Jackson County e-mail list.
