Alice B Williams Holmes:Jasper County Poor Farm

WILLIAMS, HOLMES

Does anyone know if there are any records of residents of the Jasper County Poor Farm between 1900 and 1930? I believe Alice B Williams who married Freeman S Holmes in Jasper County 12/24/1881 became a resident in late 1800's or very early 1900's. According to some information I have found, she was transferred to Mt Pleasant, Iowa (Henry County) State Mental Hospital Nov 1904, most likely from the Jasper County Poor Farm. She again was transferred from the Mt Pleasant State Hospital back to the Jasper County Poor farm in 1925 and died there in 1929.

I would really like to locate the records of the Poor Farm as well as the name of the cemetery where she was most likely buried.

I would appreciate any help! Thanks, Linda W
