Hello, While I was typing a few minutes ago, I heard a story on the TODAY Show (TV) about a man who had discovered an abandoned cemetery on the grounds of an old "mental-health hospital." I didn't hear the beginning of the story, so I Googled, and found the story on-line: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31127332/ I'm just offering it as an FYI. One lady interviewed said she went to work in that hospital - partly because she wanted to find out about her great-grandfather's life there. This is how the article starts: Sometimes spring uncovers unexpected stories. Bud Merritt was hiking in Milledgeville, Ga., when he came across a long-forgotten cemetery. "There almost seemed to be no end to it. You would find areas where there were no markers. And then you walk a few yards and you would find more," he explains. It turns out Bud had discovered a lost cemetery of patients at the largest mental hospital in the United States.

He had lived with his MA wife in Winchester, MA, for less than 20 years, and then returned to Princeton. When he died at the hospital in 1943, for whatever reason, his wife had his body brought down to Winchester to be buried here.) (My grandmother's Adoptive father went to the Tewksbury State Hospital in 1904 and died there in 1905. His wife's body had been returned to CT when she died in 1899. But he was buried in an almost, unmarked grave on the grounds of the Hospital.) (Story in archives of Lists.)
