Subject: Stockton State Hospital Cemetery- found the owners!
Date: Thu, 16 May 2002 15:37:11 -0700


Hi Everyone:
This is just an update on my little adventure with the saga of the Stockton
State Hospital Cemetery. I went to SJcounty Assessors office and found
someone who walked me through locating the property owners. I am going to
send a certified letter to the group who owns the property tomorrow. I
will ask permission to errect a sign on the property. I will also ask to
meet with the owner representative to speak to them about the history of
the property. There may be a way for the owners to force the hand of local
government to explain how someone could get a clear title on a cemetery
property.

Also, I received the following note the other day:

Hello Margie,

My name is Lucas and I am doing research on the Stockton State Asylum
Cemetery. I read your postings in CA_CEMETERIES-L Archives and it seems
like you have quite a bit of knowledge + experience.

My question:

1) who owns the property today?
2) is there a list of names of all buried there?

Any help you can give me I would very much appreciate it.

Ihope this e-mail reaches you!

Thank you,
Lucas..

I wrote back, but have yet to hear from Lucas. I want to know why & who of
his research. Does anyone recognize him?
