John Burl Shrewsbury
Looking for any information on Spencer Hospital/Second Hospital for Insane.
My Great-Grandfather died there in July of 1902 and we can't find any information pertaining to him being admitted nor where he may be buried.
My understanding is that he is buried in the 'First Cemetery' and that it isn't with any markers or has been destroyed.
We live in Mercer County and have planned a trip up there in the Spring.

Please forgive me if I am not requesting this in the right way.

We do have a letter typed stating that John Burl Shrewsbury passed away and that he was buried in a clearly marked grave if the family was inclined to claim him.

I thank you very much for your time and hope you can help me. If there are books that can be looked through, the names of these books I would appreciate, and I can look through them and you won't have to take the time.

Sincerely,
Tina M. Harrell
