TitleSouthern Counties Asylum Case Books
DescriptionSouthern Counties Asylum opened in 1849 with pauper patients, who had been resident in Crichton Royal Institution, being transferred to the new building in August 1849. Volumes 1 and 2 contain copied case notes from Crichton Royal Institution Case Books, DGH1/5/21/1, for these transferred patients, some having been resident since 1839. After the patient details, which are displayed in most instances as answers to a series of between ten and twenty questions relating to the patient's history and condition, case note entries are made annually until 1857, then in many cases there is very little or no case note detail until 1870 when entries become gradually more frequent.
