Notes
Occupation
1922 City DirectoryBurial
Funeral services were handled entirely by the hospital, with the body being transported to the gravesite in a wheelbarrow until 1933 when a hand-drawn hearse was used until 1950, and was pushed by pallbearers to the gravesite. Deceased female patients were draped in pink or blue shrouds made by the workers in the sewing room, and the carpenter shop probably furnished coffins.Hospital records indicated there are approximately 3,000 people buried in this cemetery - it was last used in 1985.
