Lyon County Kentucky Lunatic Inquest Book 1887 - 1910 INDEX


The following is and index to the transcriptions of the Lyon County Lunatic Inquest Book (with the date of publication in this blog).  I began the search for information about my great grandfather after receiving his death certificate that showed he'd died in Hopkinsville at the Western State Hospital.  I corresponded with the hospital, then found the  microfilm at the Kentucky State Archives which contained records detailing the process of his commitment(s) ,at least three times, and the sad, interesting details.  The information gave the names of those on his "jury" and the symptoms he was exhibiting.  As I read through ALL the documents, so many names familiar to me from my Lyon County research appeared that I thought others would surely be interested in these documents.  The following link is to the collection of records.  You can scroll down through the collection to find the article/page of interest or do a search.  I have scans of the original pages.  I used to have those available online, but it seems I've somehow removed that site, so if there's an interest in a particular record, you can email me at debatchley@gmal.com for a copy of the original two page document.
