Welcome to my listing for: 1894 Flushing, LI, NY Letterhead Sanford Hall (Sanitarium) Bill for Treatment Born in 1777, attorney Nathan Sanford of Flushing was a major figure in New York politics, serving as a U.S. attorney, state assemblyman, state senator and eventually a U.S. senator.The Democrat-Republican lived in one of the finest homes in Flushing, which he erected in 1836 on a huge tract of land that extended from what was then Parsons Avenue on the east and Jamaica Avenue — later renamed Kissena Boulevard — on the west.The thrice-married father of seven passed away in October 1838, a few weeks shy of his 61st birthday, with the MacDonald family acquiring the home.Dr. James MacDonald took the property and turned it into a mental institution for the wealthy, while Gen. Allan MacDonald handled the security and was the keeper of the grounds.Drs. Barstow, Brown and Buel all took turns over the decades running the facility.They took in a maximum of 36 patients, with the rooms going for $25 to $50 a week.Sanford Hall was in the news often, as people who had been committed by their families against their will were escaping and running away.By 1910, the institution disappeared from directories as the large tract of land was sold.
