Carolyn, Thank you for the link to the Historical Society's online catalog. I used it and found two resources with information on my ancestors. I don't live anywhere near DC, so now what? Do you have to actually go to this library to see these documents, or can you order copies from them? Can you order through your own local library? I couldn't find anything on the web page to help with this. I would appreciate any help or suggestions, as the one document is a court settlement on the estate of my supposed 4th G-gfather. This could be exactly what I need to prove or disprove the connection .... my question for the past 13 years!

I also remember visiting the emergency room there when I was about 8 or 9, after a neighbor boy hit me on the head with a brick. They closed it down after building a new Sibley in Northwest D. C. I don't think it was ever a sanitarium. I do have an ancestor who was a "boarder" in the Washington Home for the Incurable in the 1910 census. This was located at 32nd and S Streets N. W. per the address given. In a google search I found the Washington Sanitarium & Hospital, with no information as to it's location. There was also the Takoma Sanitarium, now the Adventist Hospital in Takoma Park, MD, just outside of the District. The Washington Historical Society may have information on former hospitals and sanitariums in D. C. here's a link to their catalog about items involving the Washington Sanitarium.
