Yes, that is me and my book. No apologies necessary, I sometimes misquote myself! Even though they were located in the same county, there was and is no official connection, then or now, between the Sonoma County Hospital and the Sonoma State Home (formerly Feeble-minded Home, now Sonoma Developmental Center). Because the two institutions are in the same county, they often get confused. However, if you wish to perform an act of penance for your transgression, please consider writing a history of the Sonoma Developmental Center going all the way back to its beginnings in Santa Clara and its move to Sonoma County in 1891. Like my Potter's Field book, you could include a list of all the people buried there, which would involve a fight to the death (so to speak) with the State of California, because the State is afraid of offending someone (anyone) by admitting that their family member was "feeble-minded." Nevertheless, this is a project that badly needs doing and I don't have time. Jeremy Nichols Santa Rosa On 9/4/2011 12:00 AM, casonoma-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
