Harmless imbeciles

Only a couple more weeks, and we're off the England. Last month I sent away for the death certificate of Flora Grace Woods (Smith). Apparently she died of lobar pneumonia at Leavesden Asylum, Watford on October 24th 1916. She was 52 years old and still married. In 1911 she was still at Hanwell Asylum, so I don't know when or why she was moved to Leavesden. I did think, with some hope, that she was moved to an asylum that was not specified as being for the poor, but the only good news was that Leavesden was for "quiet and harmless imbeciles", albeit for poor imbeciles. In 1916 the Asylum was also home to soldiers about to head off to war. Funnily, those that had been to war and been injured were being taken care of by her daughter Violet at a hospital not far away in Staines.
