Garvin's new wife is Dorothy Scrimsner, a Darnell- Hue=rley grandchild. First Husband was Truett Carey, my Cousin. Then she Married Mutt Suitt, who died a few years ago, about the time Olive Wyly Wood died. They live in the house between the Gin Lot and the old Baptising hole in the bend of Simms Creek. Guess the new 2 story home he built therewas a little big. Last year he lived there he had a Chinese Tarleton student renting a room. The old Tom Arendell Cabin is restored by his home and Dairy.not in Hamilton County as some history books say. The Cabin was moved from the Moncrief Dairy and Garvin restoired it. Arendell children amried Darnell- Arendell- Moxley, Higbee - and others related to Moxleys. Take care, and Thanks.

Hi, someone asked about treatment and conditions in these asylums or homes. May I tell that I was born in 1929 in Johnsville, Texas. and beat Dr. Naylor to our house an hour or two. We lived on old crooked dirt U.S. 67. New straight U.S. 67 was being built. Land owners could pay taxes by working on road projects with their horses. Not all new bridges were finished. Dad was crossing the prairie branch of the Duffau which ran across U.S. 67 into Pony Creek and Hurrley- riggs- Wakefield- land and north of Crockett School, then turned back across U.S. 67 towards Evergreen. One bridge was out- not finished, so Dad got in his Model T. Pickup with side curtains and pulled the gas and spark levers down full throtle and jumped and bounced across the muddy creek> He brought Dr. Naylor back down the old dirt U.S. 67 from old Evergreen, 3 miles down Hwy 281. Aunt Mary was at the home and not sure who else,but they had the box wood heater burning and me in a box south of it. Dr. Naylor said they gave me a hot reception. Mom and Mrs. Ned (Ida Head) Gristy used to sometimes serve as midwives. One neighbor - a renter- had a premature baby - born dead, and they and the father wrapped it in a blanket and buried it on a fence Row- no money for a Doctor or Funeral home. How did they know what to do? Some of that can be explained as Dr. Spangleror was it Dr. Reed"? at Tarleton Junior College that folk back then never used Veterinarians except during Anthrax scares. He pointed out to us that it took similar knowledge to deliver a calf and a baby human and there were other similarities in cattle and human health , such as Mastitis and other diseases . The gestation period was the same.so was Mastitis and mineral needs. He even pointed out that nutrition needs were very similar for infant and adult humans and cows. Also, they were still carrying Corpses back to the front room of the home back then. Flies and varmits were a problem . That is why coffins open for viewing had a white mosquito net over the open lid. We sat up all night in shifts when one member im my ROTC Class - Franklin Conger, passed away near the old Wood Furniture Store. he was a church organist and Football player. His mom requested a Military Funeral - I was the Squad Leader and others in it were Paulbearers. We sat up all night in shifts because of custom dictated by the older generation which had to keep pets away from the corpse and be there when Rigor Mortis set in - in 1700-1800's Irish had Wakes in the room aand drank a little to scare the evil Spirits from stealing as Rigor Mortis saat in and " The Spirit was shaking loose from the lump of Clay it had lived in". They thought the Evil Spirtits might steal the spirit of the deceased before it was free. The State homes were not negligent in treating. One of first Hudrocephalic (Water Head) baby surgeries was from Abilene, State Home - I saw her at Mexia, age 2o + - The Therapist- case worker asked me to feel the rubber tube run down from her brain toher kidney to drain the fluid in absence of the normal ducts and drainage. Today I think they put a shunt or stint in besides the tube. She was 20 and never been out of bed and could not talk. I doubt that a farm wife with a grandparent or 2 and 6 to 10 kids could have kept the girl alive that long- no electricy, or running water, or indoor bathrooms or lights or Air Conditioning. This girl was getting better care than an overworked mother could provide and not neglect all her other responsibilities. Drs. Naylor and Terrell and others could issue a report to a Judge and the Judge could send them to a State Home- sometimes short term , sometimes to death I knew one in Austin who lived to age 93 . so someone must have been giving him care. Shock treatments in a wet blanket were used in Stephenville Hospital into 1940-s but fading swiftly No Drunk got too far gone to protest being caried the Stephenville Hospital back then. One Chalk Mountain man spent 4 -5 years in asylum nd returned home in apparent perfect health. in 1953 when I was finishing Tarleton after Korean War. Ewell Jones told the ROTC boys in my squad the history and traditions of the Wake ( We call it a Visitation now), the symbolic meanings of headstone masymbols and such and why Christian Graves were always turned East and West, not on a modern curved drive. Orlan Weems was a member of my ROTC squad.

I haven't ever run across an asylum record book in the courthouse (but you can be sure I'll keep my eye out for it)... but sometimes you'll find info about people who were committed by the judge in the probate minute books. They are on film at the Dick Smith Library and available through interlibrary loan. Does anybody have any experience with the probate/guardianship files for people declared insane? I didn't follow-up with the original files to know what might be there.

Seems like we had to send a copy of his drivers license and a statement of the relationship and the reasons that we wanted the records. We told them we were looking for her grave and wanted to put a headstone on it, and that it was also for genealogy. They couldn't have been any nicer. We now have the headstone on the grave, by the way.

Yes, it was me who posted the Wood info. at my old e-mail address. My mother told me that Garvin Wood just recently married again. He is in his late 80's....so sounds like he's doing quite well...a newlywed again. You go Garvin! I guess Olive passed away in 2000. I don't know his new wife's name. I also have tons of information on the: Watsons, Packs, and Stephen families. I think I posted some of that also, but don't remember exactly what. The Pack info. is extreemely large. It was started by Elwood Knox who put out a book on the family back in the 1970's. My Best, Randy Haynes "Charles A. Wyly" <[email protected]> wrote:Yes. I got it, and Thanks. I was thinking this A.M. we should do more acknowledgement of new info which helps us. Just a short sentence would help. Thanks. Also was it you with a different E mail or another who posted the Wood Family History? I attended school and Church with Selden Wood family - their farm joined Uncle Lewis Wyly and cousin Lonnie Carey's Dairiesacross the Duffau from our house. Randy Wyly now has a Dairy on the Wood place and David Carey has his dad Lonnie's place- first bought by his Uncle George Carey, my Great Great Uncle. David has also bought the Odel Wright land to the Duffau Creek. The paved road from U.S. 67 past Selden Cemetery to Duffau now has a public - private owned TTruck scales for bulk feed and silage onold Johnson land across from David, going to Duffau.

Yes. I got it, and Thanks. I was thinking this A.M. we should do more acknowledgement of new info which helps us. Just a short sentence would help. Thanks. Also was it you with a different E mail or another who posted the Wood Family History? I attended school and Church with Selden Wood family - their farm joined Uncle Lewis Wyly and cousin Lonnie Carey's Dairiesacross the Duffau from our house. Randy Wyly now has a Dairy on the Wood place and David Carey has his dad Lonnie's place- first bought by his Uncle George Carey, my Great Great Uncle. David has also bought the Odel Wright land to the Duffau Creek. The paved road from U.S. 67 past Selden Cemetery to Duffau now has a public - private owned TTruck scales for bulk feed and silage onold Johnson land across from David, going to Duffau.

Hi, yes, it was definitely running before 1920- probably 1900 or before.

I was trained at the State Psychiatric Hospital in Austin in the 1970's. I worked there a semester on and off. I can say from my own experience that these facilities are humane, and the patients get excellent care, they are in no way a "good" place to be. The people there are "institutional" for the most part. They are very seriiously ill and couldn't survive in any normal setting. In 1900 the conditions would have been infinitly worse since that is long before modern medications. The type of treatment many people received would be considered barbaric by modern standards. Of course, they did the best they could do at the time with the limited knowledge they had. Ausitn has the psychiatric hospital and schools for the blind, deaf, and mentally retarted. I am certain each of these maintain records, but I have no idea how accessable they might be. Contact the state hospital in Austin and I'm sure they can point you in the right direction.

all I know is that my great grnadmother died in the insame hospital near san antonio, 1913, I don't know the name of it. I don't even know why she was there, only that my great uncle put her there an adopted out the three younger children. My parents found her record somehow and my grandfather was very sad to know that he was in San Antionio befor she died and didn't even know that she was anywhere near there. His older brother had put on her records that she was a widow with no children. I was just wondering how bad a place it was at that time. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cindy Shipman" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, March 09, 2003 2:18 PM Subject: Re: [ERATH] > Are you asking, if the state mental hospital(s) was/were a good place in the > early 1900s?

Here's what I have on the Hales. Don't know how they tie into Alexander. I have been told that there is an estate in Austin held by the state as "unclaimed" that belonged to Thomas P. Everett and Tabitha Eliz. Hale Everett. I have no idea how much it is. I tried to contact the state about it to get the details but they don't have it by name. It was apparently mishandled somehow and can be found by a number, which I don't have currently have. I am a very distant relative, but I would think there are closer ones than me who might be able to claim it. Thomas and Eliz. Everett never had children. If this is all true, it is a shame to let it just sit there. Charles, I posted the information I had on the Copelands, did you get it?

Hi, I missed thi one. Was cleaning out tonight. I went to school with Helen Moon. I remember mom said the moons and Zea and Fred Winn were her kin, but didn.t say how. -Stone or Copeland or Carey? I have seen some of aWinnFamily History somewhere- back to Wilnns or Wynns of Woburn, England. Any input? I will check more tomorrow- It's Spring Break and we may even go to the South Shores of Lake Waco- skip Padre Island. Take care, Charles A.

I was wondering when the Hospital at Rusk, TX was operating. I think it was open in the early 1900's. They have a web site and The cemetery is beautiful and has numbers instead of names. I do not think this is the one at Terrell, TX. I did some research on it, but have forgotten what the Cemetery was called. It was Wildwood something, I will see if I can find it. Faye Purcell

Is there any information about patients in that Austin area asylum available anywhere?? I am trying to track someone who supposed spent some time there about that time (1900-1910)? -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Tate [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, March 09, 2003 7:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ERATH] There was also the "lunatic assylum" in (or near) Austin that Erath county residents were being sent to in the 1900 to 1910 time period. > People in these parts were still being sent to the state hospital at > Terrell during that time period. > >>any one know anything about the insane hospital that was in San >>ANtonio around the 1900's >> >> > ==== TXERATH Mailing List ==== --- Author Retains Copyright --- -- Copyright 2003 Author -- All Rights Reserved Post to List: [email protected] http://www.selfroots.com Unsubscribe request To: [email protected] ARCHIVES: http://searches2.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl
