WOYM: Staff at former Catawba hospital had a long way to go to get to work


The columnist gets to ask the question today.

Marsha Turpin
Wytheville
A: Hospital records from 1910-1972, when it operated as a state-run facility to treat TB (since then, it has been a state mental health hospital), are hard to come by.
