Thank you to everyone who helped with the search. I heard today from the archivist at Wakefield to say that Emily seemed to have had several admissions to Menston and then was transferred to Bootham Park after the inception of the NHS. I was able to give her name, date of birth and last known address to the archivist. The general public never know their hospital number, so this is the data that record departments use to trace past records for emergency admissions.  I have been doing some background research into the management of mental health disorders in the early 20th century Most of the currently used drugs were not being introduced until the 1950s, although electrconvulsive therapy came earlier.  The sad thing is how Emily seemed to have been cut off from her family bith in life and death. I hope to be able to see her records when I come up to Yorksgen. Chris
