This page of the ledger shows that Lake County had an "Overseer of the Poor" in 1846.

I have no clue what relation the ledger-writer had to that office — that is, why money passed through his hands and got recorded in this ledger.
The only place I can find Joseph Haydon (who boarded this sick and penniless person) is in an 1854 record of marriage to Maria Phebe Green, in Lake County.
