    1. Sherwood Sanitorium
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Bemis Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/pAC.2ACI/2127 Message Board Post: In the 1920 US Census there is at least one page, perhaps more, which has "Sherwood Sanitorium" written, on a line labeled "Name of Institution." This line is at the top of the page of the 1920 census. Everything else about the page looks like all the other 1880+ census pages I've viewed and it appears that everyone on that page lives on Main St., which I understand is where the Sherwood Sanitorium was located. My questions are: 1) What kind of sanitorium was Sherwood? 2) Why would it have been specifically identified under "Name of Institution" on a census page when everything else on the page looks like every other page I've searched in the 1920 census? I've researced this as much as I can in present day St. Albans, via telephone since I live in the western US. Thus far I've gotten theories and "I have no idea" 's. I would welcome any solid information, or theories, or ideas, or anything, regarding the Sherwood Sanitorium which existed in St. Albans, VT., on Main St., from ???? (I'm guessing late 1800's) through 1920 until 1940 or later. Thanks ahead of time. I look forward to hearing from anyone who has any information or theories or ??? Faye
