The Linden Murders

Linden, New York is found a drive up from the Old Genesee County Poorhouse, which is a few minutes south of the City of Batavia.  From the poorhouse, Linden Road leads to a community surrounded by trees and along the Little Tonawanda Creek.

The community has an interesting history.  Ninety years ago, a handful of murders happened in this little community.  An unidentified lady was found dead in the woods, another lady was found murdered in her basement, and three were found burned dead.

No one was arrested for the murders.  The cases were unsolved.

Below are some pictures I took when visiting Linden, New York, this past winter.
