Hi Spruill, Yes that is how I got the microfilm of the Charity records at my FHC. It only costs something like $6 and you can keep them for a month. You can also renew them a couple of times. My FHC allows them to go on permanent loan after that. I've accumulated a small library of New Orleans reference materials that way. If I have a chance to go down there before you order your film, I will let you know.

You can read about them here: http://nutrias.org/guides/genguide/hospitalinsanity.htm These are also available on microfilm through any Family History Center. See: http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=topicdetails&subject=388421&subject_disp=Louisiana%2C+Orleans%2C+New+Orleans+%2D+Medical+records&columns=*,0,0 or http://goo.gl/EXqCm If someone is going to the NOPL they might be able to look these up for you, otherwise you might try getting the microfilms through your nearest FHC.
