Thanks for the information. I do think it is a shame that the whole story of the colony is not known to most people. When I saw the film I was almost ashamed to admit I was from Lynchburg. I know people who still work there, and frankly, I don't think the treatment and concern for the clients there has changed much over the years. <NAME IS AVAILABLE> You see Cousins, You forgot to <ASK & ANSWER QUESTIONS SOMEONE KNOWS> I surely hope that your Family missed this Terrible BIT of Reality, nut every family was not so fortunate. OH but it did affect many families. THE ostrich mind set just does not apply. THE simple Minded BLOG bit is the same sweep under the RUG Idea that Our Churches & Officialdom have had for, too many years. <NO> Well why has there been no condemnation of this inhuman, Official Policy, Yes I know Someone took it to Court, but the things that are best taken to the grave, well, this is not one of those thing's. NOW just how can one say that this sordid bit of our past has not had any effect on any ones genealogy. A T Powell <[email protected]>
