About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Clinton County Poor Farm was established about 1854, and the cemetery, also known as Paupers Cemetery, is located on the west side of State Route 127 just north of Bretz Wildlife Lodge. There are five remaining concrete markers, all from the 1920s, but St. Mary's Catholic Church records indicate 14 other individuals were buried there between 1878 and 1885. Another 10 residents of the "Poor Farm" were buried in St. Mary's Cemetery.
