Hi,

 

Agnews was in Santa Clara. Before the turn of the century, it was known as
the "Great Asylum." It was a state hospital for the mentally ill  until the
early 1970's.

Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Anton Souza Santos

 

Dear Group: 

 

This was in the latest edition of the Monterey County Genealogy Soc
Newsletter Jan/Feb 2014, Monterey, California: 

 

Taken from the Salinas (California) Weekly Index of Thursday, 1 Nov 1894,
extracted by Dee Sardoch--

 

ADJUDGED INSANE: Anton Souza SANTOS, a native of Portugal, age 26, and
single, was on Monday, in the superior court adjudge insane on a medical
examination made by Dr. John Pand Dr. Dorus Brumwell, and was by Judge Dorn
order committed to the asylum for the Insane at Agnews (this would be Agnew
Insane Asylum/State Hospital in Napa California. 

 

I just thought it might be of interest  to someone who was looking for Anton
and had lost him!
