I found one once - searching for a particular name - and the heading on the page indicated it as the hospital. I am sorry to say I forget the exact name (I believe it changed a few times over the course of its history). There is a nice site for it still: http://www.danversstateinsaneasylum.com/home.html faye Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
