Warwick Asylum
« on: Thursday 30 July 15 00:01 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know anything about the Warwick Asylum?

My great grandad, George Harry Dunn, a former Engineer Fitter, lived there for the last few years of his life, suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

As of right now I'm not allowed access to any of the records. Wondering if anyone would have any information for me.

if your Granddad appears in the 1911 or 1901 Census you should be able to find him resident at the Asylum.   I found the sibling of an ancestor there at Hatton.

Thank you! He wouldn't have been admitted until the late 60s. He died there in 1970.
