These women were not feeble-minded Hi Gail, My grgrgrandmother was placed here in 1912 at the age of 82 yrs. w/Senile Dementia. At that time her death cert. in 1914 stated her death occurred at the Asylum for Feeble Minded Women which I understand at the time it did take senile patients. It has apparently changed uses many times over the years. Hope this helps to clarify the discussion. Best Regards, Joan
