<p>I did find 1 same age Month Year on the SC State Hospital (where her father was admitted) census but she was listed as black. We have records of her father being admitted into the asylum. They went to court and got him in. I know her sister was in there because I have found some proof. She is buried at the Asylum cemetery, alone. Her husband married not long after she was buried.</p>

<p>Hi, Tammy. Do you know the source of the information that she was a patient in the SC State Hospital? Is it oral family history or a recorded document? Unless it was an emergency admittance, there should be a case on file in the Probate Court in the county in which she was a resident at the time. If it was an emergency, I believe the head of the SC State Hospital had the authority to approve the admission. So, you might find some answers at the county…</p>

<p>This is the link to the State Hospital burials. I did not find her on it. <a href="http://www.richlandlibrary.com/sites/default/files/scdmh_cemetery_list.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.richlandlibrary.com/sites/default/files/scdmh_cemetery_list.pdf</a></p>

<p>Yes I am still looking for her. As far as I know she is white but I have seen lots of close possibilities but they are black. I am not sure about that but I do know that in her parents & all the siblings do not even list her as a family member in their obituaries.</p>

<p>Thank You</p>

<p>Hi, Tammy. I just joined the group recently, so I did not see your post until now. Are you still trying to find Lula Mae Hawkins? I live in SC and would be happy to try and help. </p>
