I'm
excited to share my discussion with local historian and researcher extraordinaire, Jennifer Liber Raines. Jennifer is also a member of the Erie County
Poorhouse Cemetery project at the University at Buffalo and is the inspiration
for the character of Abby Stevens in the Orphans and Inmates series. Here we discuss our mutual love of
Buffalo history, the Erie County Poorhouse and archival research.
