Trying to locate Edwin/Edward Callahan born April 1866 near Peotone, Il. I located some newspaper clippings that stated he was adjudged insane in 1904. His name is listed on the 1910 census for Kankakee State Hospital. I am unable to read what is written under the heading of, "language spoken". Most inmates spoke English; however; I believe Ed may not have been able to speak. I cannot find any death records for him. He has other siblings who passed away in institutions and I was able to find documentation on them. In 1920, he is not listed with his other siblings on a family member's will. I cannot find any grave information for him either. Does anyone have any suggestions of where else I could search? Thank you.
