Quaise Asylum Records

About

Quaise Asylum Records
The Quaise Asylum was constructed in 1822 to harbor the town’s poor. Ten inmates lost their lives during the great fire in 1844 that burnt the asylum down. This collection records Captain Alexander Coffin, who settled at Quaise Asylum in 1939, his correspondence, receipts for produce, and his journals. These sources provide a general look at how the Captain maintained the farming business at Quaise.
