Ordered & Resolved or Board of Directors Minutes During Construction of Asylum(1858-1881)  - Abstracted and Annotated by Joy Stalnaker DeFazio, 260 pages chockfull of the facts and foibles of building one of the largest hand-cut blue sandstone buildings in the world. Building the Lunatic Asylum West of the Alleghenies tested the talents of the population in the tiny town of Weston where the roads were poor at best and the skills among its 800 souls were limited. Through the construction of what is now, in the 21st Century, a National Landmark, the town began to grow. From its earliest days, it defined our town. The hospital has since closed and is now owned privately, but it still is a defining characteristic of our town and Lewis County, West Virginia.
