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.

Lucas County Poor House and Infirmary was operated by the county. Their burials were placed in Sunshine Cemetery. People were buried here if the patient had no family or no family members claimed them upon death. This cemetery was removed in 1985; 1700 bodies were expected, but close to 4,000 bodies were actually found. Bodies were reinterred at Forest Cemetery in Toledo. No burial records exist. Archeology records of the excavation are available through the Canaday Center at the University of Toledo.

The cemetery was located between Arlington Avenue and Aberdeen Avenue and west of Larc Lane.

The cemetery was located in the City of Toledo, Lucas County, Ohio, and is # 7078 (Sunshine Cemetery) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
