Scott Fitzgerald museum of Montgomery, Alabama (Photo is courtesy of Archives, University of South Carolina), I have located a picture of my mother and Zelda Scott Fitzgerald probably taken between 1945 - 1948. I would like permission to post these photographs on this site and request anyone who can help identify the other patients and the staff to contact me at Dean S. DeSoto, catsnorth@sbcglobal.net, telephone 210-681-8655. Many thanks!

I have had four descendants contact me regarding my research and wish to thank you Deb and the site very much. I will be traveling to Montgomery in late May to meet with the Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald museum folks, and to meander about Mississippi to seek out any more clues on Willie Mae Hall. Any descendants of Willie Mae are also most welcome to contact me to help me unravel this mystery. Somehow and someway I will travel to Asheville this year to view the sight and get a ground's eye view of where things were. I do hope the souls of those who passed will help me unlock some of the decades old mystery that surrounds this tragedy that transcended into the apogee of mom's life. After the fire mom lived until she was 51, coping with her more than difficult mother, marrying my father (later divorcing), and finally marrying my stepfather (an alcoholic and batterer). Yet mom thrived on raising her two sons on her own, working six days a week, and sadly dying of an enormous brain tumor probably caused by the 151 ECT treatments and corresponding ICT treatments. Mom's story is one of tragedy transcending into a steel willed resolve of strength refined at Highland, tested and trued that night at the hospital. Simple to find me:<br /><br />Dean S.

Mom lived on the fourth floor and had developed a relationship with Zelda. Mom's story was very dramatic about her escape. Currently I am writing a book about mom's life and her formative experiences with Zelda. Indeed she was a phoenix from that fire. Have researched the North Carolina Medical Board's records regarding a conviction of Dr. Carroll for "grossly immoral conduct with patients or nurses of Highland Hospital" with some of his nurses and patients on July 20, 1926. The conviction was overturned January 13, 1928. For some unknown reason the North Carolina Medical Board did not reinstate him until July 22, 1948. Very odd to say the least. Probably very political, as the story continues to unfold. Wish all of you well in 2015. Will probably visit North Carolina sometime this year and would very much like to talk to anyone who may information from grandparents, parents, victims of the tragedies. Any family members, people with information about this event please contact me at catsnorth@sbcglobal.net.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02504786248079209416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6266840621835329854.post-56076268831972570182014-12-03T17:44:30.320-05:002014-12-03T17:44:30.320-05:00I am in fact delighted to glance at this webpage

On our way back from dinner last night , we saw lights at the top floor and decided to take a quick drive through the road that borders the old hospital , in a matter of minutes we were confronted by an officer in an unmarked car, our driver told the officer we were curious about the facility, he quickly informed us that this was federal property and we needed to leave.<br />Weird , what are they afraid of , what could they be concealing , why we're there lights in a defunct delapadated old building.
