This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Johnson, Hokenson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ZFC.2ACI/524 Message Board Post: I was born in Superior in 1953, and the name of the hospital escapes me. I'm going to be in Superior at the end of June, and I'd like to find the site where the hospital, which has since closed (has it been demolished, also?), stood. Can anyone tell me what hospitals might have been around during that time, and their addresses? If I see the name, I'll recognize it.
At that point in time, I think St. Mary's (where I was born) & St. Joseph's were the only hospitals. St. Joseph's was out in Billings Park section (west). St. Francis Nursing Home is now in that facility. The address is: 1800 New York Ave., Superior. I'm not sure if St. Mary's building is still standing. I know it was on the east side of Tower Ave., maybe between 8th & 15th Streets and between John Ave. & Clough Ave. Both were closed as hospitals after Superior Memorial was built in the early 60's (now owned by the Duluth Clinic). St. Mary & St. Joseph were owned by the Catholic Diocese-1201 Hughitt Ave...I don't have a current phone book & do not live there anymore.
