Barton County Poor Farm Cemetery
Lamar, Barton County, Missouri, USA
The Barton County Poor Farm was enumerated in 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930, and 1940 in rural Central Township. I hope to record as many burials of the Barton County Poor Farm residents as possible from various records, but many will not be accounted for. It's likely some of the younger people were eventually able to leave on their own and others were possibly taken in by family members, etc. Perhaps the County Poor Farm was losing favor as most of the residents on the 1940 census that I was able to find, died in other locations in Barton or other counties. The last record I found of a burial of a resident of the Barton County Poor Farm was Chris Farmer in 1949.
