What I’m wondering is, if you’re getting into numbers as high as 1000 and you’re only doing last names starting with “A” and “B”, just how many plots are there in this cemetery?!? How many people have gone through there only to be completely forgotten about?! Please do tell us more of these stories. It’s heartbreaking to think how many people have been dehumanized like this just because they needed help.

[@Mureto]

The numbers are chronologicly.

There are 1684 marked graves at the Connecticut Valley Hospital Asylum graveyard, according to the Godfrey Memorial Library's online database. 1651 of them have an entry in the library's records, with associated names, and ages, but all dates of death from before February 8, 1900, are missing.

[@RheaStorm]

I actually cried listening to Lillian Burr's story. It's something that happens a lot to victims of domestic/sexual violence, even the part where she acts nice around a suspected attacker (probably cause she's afraid he or his friends could do more harm to her). Thank you for giving these people here more than just a number

I would love to see more of these. But maybe not A-Z all back to back. Gotta sprinkle in some other videos in-between. Maybe you could collab with a company that cleans headstones or something. And clean them up as you go. Heck, you could probably write a book with all these stories in it, and sell it at local stores and online. It would be a great way to preserve this knowledge and make a few extra bones.

[@psychepath]

Really hits when you show wider shots that this place had hundreds of graves and stones already waiting for these people and they likely already knew it would be where they ended up. Just rough. Thanks for sharing this.

[@ET13666]

I never even though about that. Were the people numbered before they died? Or were they numbered consecutively as they died? Either way, the hundreds of plots were probably laid out in advance (if only on paper). It had already been decided (probably before they died) that they would be erased from human memory.

[@eliking4652]

In my hometown, Athens Ohio, there's the old Athens State Hospital, earlier it was called the Athens Lunatic Asylum. It's been closed for quite some time as well, and from some cursory research it looks like the old hospital in Connecticut and the Athens hospital have in common the Kirkbride architectural plan. But there's an extensive cemetery on the Athens Hospital grounds as well, full of numbered graves for patients and/or Civil War veterans. We've had some remembering projects but it's still such a shame the general dehumanization, to add insult to injury many of the stones are damaged or missing. All of this to say great video, keep it up!

[@speaklifegardenhomesteadpe8783]

It's important to value human life, else we end up with many dehumanized like this. There's also no help if your poor and lose a loved one. It's very expensive. I know some areas have paupers graves in cemeteries, even that can be thousands, usually churches or something help cover it, but not always as small churches barely get by as it is. So nice they did remembrance services, very cool!

[@aidanyoung9953]

I would LOVE to see a part 2 of this

[@kaw8473]

The reason behind the numbering system breaks my heart. Thank you for giving a few of these numbers a bit of dignity.

[@jameslongest6410]

Another reason for the numbers is that the state bought these stones in bulk lots. They were engraved with the numbers beforehand and stored until needed.

[@XenobiaDarkstar]

If you did a series of these and told us about every grave we'd be here for every one of them.

[@mysticmom616]

This was such a poignant piece. Thank you. I’ve had many family members that have suffered from mental illness, one died from illness, the other 4 committed suicide . My sister in law has schizophrenia and is in a lovely personal care home. To think that she likely could have experienced a similar fate in a different place and time. 💔

[@fullofswine]

[@skyevergreen3855]

MORE!!!!! PLEASE !!!! this is so important. Nothing like this should ever happen again and despite the crimes that people committed they should not be forgotten.

[@BeepBoopBee]

Some of these stories genuinely sound like old people struggling with the beginnings of dementia. Its so sad to think that these people were confused, unable to remember stuff and then got locked away and forgotten about. Imagine waking up one day in a room where you don't recognize anything, you don't know how you got there and you're not allowed to go out of the room. You don't know how long you've been there and nobody will really tell you anything. And then when you die, you've been reduced entirely to just a number. Nobody knows who you are or even wants to remember you. That's so sad to think about.

[@Oubliettedweller]

Really appreciate this video, especially the lillian part. My grandmother's sister was put into an insane asylum in the Caribbean and died there, either buried unmarked or cremated. Every time I am at a family event, one of my grandmother's sisters breaks down into tears at the sight of me, because I look just like her. Whenever I asked what did she do to get put there, my grandma would just say it was because of "what she did with the boys.". Crazy how being a little freaky would be enough to be put in an insane asylum in the 1950s.

[@shemm8686]

i would love to see more of these. there are so many interesting and tragic stories just in these two letters alone and you've revived their stories after so long being lost, it would be great to hear more

[@carterschulte7997]

Another video, heck a whole series on these graves would be a worthwhile watch. Many of these people were likely victims in life, and all have become victims of a cruel system in death, and rembering them is the closest thing to kindness we can offer. There's just something so fascinating about a grave, a monument, being made for the purpose of forgetting. "Let us remember, these people must be forgotten."

[@dogthefox]

This is a great video, but as a Middletown townie I’ve got one bone to pick: CVH didn’t publish the death registers. A UCC minister named John Hall undertook a very long project to get the registry out of the state. He ran an annual memorial service where he read 100 names each May from 1999 until he retired. If you’re around Connecticut, he’s a great guy to talk to.

I found a distant relative is buried at Eastern State Hospital in Virginia. He had been "...acting out of sorts..." ,so the local court had him committed to Eastern State as "insane". He died unexpectedly a few hours after arriving there. An autopsy revealed that he actually had an undiagnosed infection. All of his brothers and sisters had passed away prior to his death so no relatives were readily available to take charge of his body so he's buried there in a unmarked grave.

[@CitroChannel]

Absolutely more of these, please!

[@allison6842]

Thank you for this, so many of these people probably have family alive today who have no clue where they reside. I myself had a relative, it was either my great great grandmother or great great great grandmother who sadly died in a asylum that caught fire. postpartum depression back then could send a lady to the asylum. who knows by doing this you may actually help a family find closure in finding loved ones.

[@Wguy56]

Just found your channel- new subscriber! My gg grandfather spent the last 4 years of his life in the SD State Hospital for the Insane at Yankton, SD. My mother told me a local bank failed in 1932 and he got delusional and went after the banker with a gun demanding the money that he lost. My mom, who was 3 when this happened, told me that the banker said something to the effect he never had to worry about money again, he would be provided with a fine brick house and all his food and necessities provided... then had him committed. I was working on genealogy a few months ago and ran into this story again and wondered which banker, and how did this go down. I contacted the hospital and was able to sign an affidavit releasing his records to me. WELL, it turned out his family petitioned the court for his committal! He was getting more and more delusional- at age 80, God and devils talked to him, his wife was in the "old country", when she actually died 5 years before. He would run away from home at any opportunity so family had to watch him every waking hour. Which likely was a safety problem lest he be injured or worse. The records show he was exactly like the family stated, and more. They also state he was mostly "euphoric," and "amorous" toward the female staff! Well, he did have electricity and indoor plumbing, which his grandchildren would not get until 1949 when rural electrification finally was completed after WW 2 delayed the project. And likely better food than to be had on a hardscrabble depression-era farm. It would seem the story was concocted so the younger generation- Mom- would not blame them for this action and perhaps to allay any guilt felt. His remains were shipped to Iowa City to be interred beside his wife and his name and dates added to her headstone as they could not afford one for just him. I only wish Mom had lived long enough to hear "the rest of the story"!

[@Wguy56]

Oh, and it was his son- my gt grandfather- who drove him to the hospital!

Thank you for bringing this to light. The Terrell State Hospital in Terrell Texas has a cemetery for the patients who passed away at the hospital and had no family to claim them. They were buried in numbered plots on the hospital grounds. The volunteers have researched the records by hand because the records from the 1880s was all in handwritten log books. Every single patient has been located and the plot marked by name. It was a massive effort and took years to complete.
