    3. I appreciate the address is Montrose 1901 but I wonder if someone can advise me. I find a father in law whose address has been transcribed as being at Sunnyside Lunatic Asylum. I understand that he may not necessarily have been lacking any capacity to be at the address, in circumstances where he needed not to be living alone or for health reasons (?) The entry in the census includes father in law who is a Plumber, with daughter, husband and 4 children of their marriage, all living at Sunnyside Lunatic Asylum, Montrose. I could blame the transcription if justified, but surely who ever is responsible wouldnt have clutched the address out of thin air. Does this sound right for the social circumstances in 1901? Janet
