Globe-Democrat Misfortune, 1874
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat newspaper printed short articles about people and families that were in the midst of difficult times caused by various conditions; criminal actions, charity situations, and medical conditions. This list may place your ancestor in St. Louis in 1874, whether a resident or just passing through town.
Lorraine C. Cates and Alice Byington Tucker transcribed this list when it first appeared in the 1972 St. Louis Genealogical Society Quarterly, volume 24, number 2, page 54.
