Hello MargM, thanks for offering to look-up this information next time you are on duty. I'll ask my local library about the books you mentioned too. I'll do a search on the Hunter Valley list for any references to the Moreisset Hospital, although with all the clues I've received on this list I feel I am well on my way to understanding what the Morisset Mental Hospital hospital was like c1919, regards Wendy McKenzie
