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.

The Coles County Farm, Poor Farm, or Almshouse, was built in 1916 and was closed in 1979. It later was opened as Ashmore Estates as housing for developmentally disabled adults. That closed in 1987. It was next opened in 2006 for haunted house tours and other spooky events.

Local persons commonly refer to the location as Ashmore Estates, but the majority of the burials occurred while it was the County Poor Farm.
