Columbus State Insane Asylum

Columbus State Insane Asylum

I found a 1940 census record which lists an individual, Sam Rinehart, who may be the person that I am looking for, as an inmate at the Columbus State Insane Asylum. Any tips on how to get patient records from that institution, or court records which declared him legally incompetent/insane?
Thanks,
Teresa

Oddly enough, one of my relatives, Leota Walters, was also in the Columbus State Hospital in 1940. Only information I can find in obtaining any records is through ohiohistory.gov. I have never had so much trouble navigating through a website, and so far, no luck. You having any luck finding yours? Thanks, Christine
