The Helen Purcell Home was founded in 1885 after the death of Helen Purcell, when she provided in her will an establishment of a non-denominational retirement home for women who were left alone in the world.
Miss Purcell specified in her will that that her property was “to form a nucleus and serve as a foundation and commencement of a home for the aged, or infirm, indigent widows and unmarried women. Her estate was estimated at $15,000. Many other members of the Zanesville community added to this fund which allowed for the opening of the home twenty years after Helen’s passing. The trustees decided to name it after her calling it the Helen Purcell Home.
