The Barton family came to this area around 1829 and the name Bartonville sort of stuck since about 1878 when a post office opened here and was named after W.C.H. Barton to honor him. The family lived in a farmhouse and they owned quite a bit of land in the area. They nearly owned over 1000 acres along the bottomlands of the Illinois River and Kickapoo Creek. They also owned holdings in the Kickapoo Distillery, saw and grist mills, banking and served in the Limestone Township and village government.

Bartonville was kind of a rowdy place with plenty of saloons, quite a few dogs and drunken miners. The big industry was mining here believe it or not. You think that states like Nevada and Arizona had a huge mining industry well think again because under the town were many shafts and tunnels. The town had eleven saloons so that the hardworking miners at the end of the day could drink, gamble and stir the pot. May of the miners here were immigrants that were Irish, Scottish, English and Italian. Mining was one of the main industries here from 1895 till about 1954 the other industry was the Peoria State Hospital For The Incurable Insane or The Bartonville State Hospital both of which are the same.

The hospital was founded as a result of the Illinois General Assembly's provision for the establishment of the asylum in 1895. Governor Jon Altgeld appointed a three person commission to find the site where it would be built. John Finely from Peoria, J.J. McAndrews from Chicago who later was a Congressman and one other chose a site near Peoria located in Bartonville. They would have to come up with where to build such a large facility.

The construction began around 1895 and the main building was completed in 1897 and this building strangely was never used. I guess it had structural integrity because their were mine shafts running under it. The asylum or state hospital rather had to beginnings which ill explain further below as to what I mean. But it was calied The Illinois Asylum For The Incurable Insane and it was prison like.

But the second beginning occurred in 1902. The first building erected looked like a castle eventually the asylum would go more with the present cottage plan which is what you see today in some of our photos when you see the smaller brick buildings with the large white windows around them. The original asylum was to foreboding looking and as soon as it was built it was torn down in 1897 this is because the coal mine below was causing huge cracks throughout the walls caused by the shafts collapsing below.

The reconstruction of the cottage plan was completed under the direction of Dr. George Zeller which boasted 33 buildings. The buildings had a caretaker home, patient housing, dorms for the staff, a store, power station, communal utility building, bakery, laundry, kitchen, staff housing, workshops, dining halls and even an event center. The operations for the incurable insane asylum began in February of 1902. Patients that were deemed incurable were transferred to Bartonville from other asylums in the state. In 1906 the hospital opened a training school for Nurses. Then from 1907 to 1909 the facility was known as the Illinois General Hospital For The Insane and in 1909 called the Peoria State Hospital. Dr. Zeller was the hospitals first superintendent. He went in front of the state legislature in fact to demand the name change because he felt no patient was incurable.

In 1927 there was about 2,700 patients living on site and nearly 14,000 patients had already stayed here or were treated by Zeller and his team. Zeller believed anyone could be cured he was a man with high hopes and visions. He was well known for his therapeutic efforts for example they would do air therapy by letting the mentally ill sleep out on the porches at night to get fresh air.  Zeller worked hard to understand the mentally ill he would invite newspaper reporters to tour the facility. From around 1943 to 1969 the hospital participated in a departmental affiliation program for psychiatric nursing which provided instruction psychiatric nursing to students from regional general hospital nursing schools.

From around 1917 till 1961 the hospital was operated by the Illinois Department of Public Welfare and in 1961 the Department of Mental Health was created and took over the care of this institution. The peak here was through the 1950's when they had about 2,800 patients. But in 1972 the facility would be closed and at that time they had about 600 patients so it was dwindling. Despite that factor they were short staffed and underfunded. In fact most of the buildings stood empty and were auctioned off so that businesses could operate out of them.
Developer Winsley Duran Jr took ownership of most of the structures. His plan was to create office space but he went bankrupt soothing ever came of it and the buildings still stood empty.

The Bowen building which is the prime focus of my trip because it was one of the finest yet most endangered building on site which housed the nurses dorm, college and administration was demolished 
in September of 2017 just eleven months later after our visit. When I realized it was on the brink of demolition I had to visit the Bowen Building since I was in Illinois for other projects at the time because I knew if I did not id never get to see it and it was a marvel which is why we took so many photos of the complex so that it lives on through our site for years to come.

With that being said the grounds consisted in total of 63 buildings and four cemeteries all laid out amongst nature. The area has groves of trees surrounding it. It was a traditional cottage plan which was more common of a layout in the 1900's so that it seemed less prison like. The original main building was constructed with a Kirkbride Plan and today their is only 12 of the 63 buildings left standing and all are currently being occupied by a local business or private owner of sorts.

The Bowen building was the last one to get the axe but Pollak Hospital and the Tuberculosis War still stand in fact you can get haunted tours in the old Pollak Hospital building. I was not sure what buildings were what to later or id focused on some of the other ones but at the time I was just more concerned with the fact that the Bowen building which were also the nurses dorms were facing demolition. So many great buildings have gotten torn down in this country that were symbolic to this countries mental health system.

Their is also a church and four cemeteries I did not get to see them were not even sure where to find them at the time. The area is like a maze of streets and buildings. But many of the burials here were just potters fields so some patients likely never had gotten a gravestone. Thousands died while being patients here but a famous grave was the former gravedigger named Mr. Bookbinder. Also Rhoda Derry who become famous because of the cruel treatment and torture she suffered before coming here and Emily Belsher the last surviving descendent of the legendary explorer Sir Frances Drake and she does have a grave you can visit in the cemetery.

Supposedly Manuel Bookbinder or as they called him "Old Book" haunts the graveyard not far from this very large elm tree. He was the grave digger and led the mourning duties with six patients. Sadly many patients had no family that claimed or visited them so more then often Dr. Zeller had them buried in one of the four cemeteries nearby. I posted some photos of the cemetery in a special section here out of respect for those that passed away here its the right thing to do even if I did not take them you will at least get to see what they were like. 


Old Book died at the age of 32 guess he was not so old but Dr. Zeller had him buried near the old elm tree. Witnesses at old books funeral claimed to him mourning at his own gravesite back around 1910. Its one of the more famous haunts because his ghost has been sighted here since then its not like ten years ago this happened but rather this is a century old ghost story. Even Dr. Zeller scene old books ghost. He was well respected many nurses and patients attended the funeral crying at the old elm. In the 1920's Dr. Zeller penned a book called Befriending The Bereft which he writes about being drawn to some of the mysterious experience had had the hospital during his two tenures as the sites superintendent 1902 - 1913 and 1921 - 1935 including other eerie stories with Zellers account of Old Book and the graveyard elm. 


A site called ghostsnghouls.com posted a photo of an apparition posted in September of 2013 of an apparition looking out the window. The windows had no glass so its not a reflection. The site
apparently is full of hauntings such as phantom footsteps, sobbing, wailing, crying, people capturing EVP, disembodied voices, apparition sightings and ghostly knocks. They have for years offered ghost tours here and well I believe its been on television although I would not read into that much we both know most shows are fake entertainment and that ghosthunting is nothing like how the portray it. I did take EVP here but it was so breezy it interfered with my ability to capture anything sad to say but it does not mean the site is not haunted there is energy here.

Even though this asylum was one of the better facilities in the country but once funding was cut in the 1960's and early 70's the staff became overwhelmed in trying to help its patients they just could not keep up. This led to serious neglect doctors performed lobotomies, electroshock and water therapies to help patients and they were used on the most dangerous or the severely handicapped patients. Overall 94 lobotomies were performed here on the most insane people. However, the hospital had the highest cure rate in the country but it was the most expensive. That expense is what led to the slow budge cuts over the years that pushed the asylum into deplorable conditions and neglect which is why in 1973 the governor shut it all down.

Dr. Zellers face was the father of this institution who also btw was a local surgeon and he knew there had to be a better way to house these people rather then treat them as if they were prisoner. He was all for treating these patients humanely. He took all the bars off the doors and windows, removed all the types of restraints and instituted holistic type of therapies. People though he was nuts for refusing to lock his patients up or tie them down to beds. He had an open door policy meaning his patients
were treated with kindness and empathy. When the asylum opened in 1902 the Peoria Women's League seen quite a few treatments in other places that were used to treat the mentally ill and they knew there had to be a better way to go about it that is why Dr. Zeller had been brought in from the beginning.

Not only that but the hospital had the number one nursing program in the country for 34 of its 36 years in operation even after Zellers death in 1938 the hospital continued to run following his vision of Non-imprisonment, non-restraint, non-sedation and an 8 hour workday. Nurses were trained here then could be dispatched to other state hospitals eventually which is what the Bowen building mainly was for. However, when I visited the Bowen building the place was like a fortress I would have loved to explore it but it was a no go therefore when it was torn down I was pretty sad about that because id love to have explored it internally. But I still am very delighted I had gotten to walk around the complex given the fact that over the years it continues to shrink in size. Sooner or later all that might be left of this once thriving hospital may just be the graves of the patients that once resided here.

Old Book is the name given to a purported ghost or spirit that haunts a cemetery and tree on the grounds of the Peoria State Hospital in Bartonville, Illinois. While rumors of ghosts and ghost stories are highly speculative, the Old Book tale has been documented many times. Among those documenting the tale is the first director of the state insane asylum, George Zeller.

The living Old Book

The name Old Book is the name given to a popular patient at the hospital. The well-liked Old Book worked as a gravedigger during his time at Peoria State Hospital. It is said that following burial services for deceased patients he would lean against an old elm tree and weep for the dead.[1] Various sources report that Old Book's official name was recorded as Manual Bookbinder aka A. Bookbinder (1878 - 1910), grave marker 713 on the cemetery grounds.[2] It is said that Old Book was mute, so no one could ask him his name. No one knows what his given name was, but he is allegedly called Bookbinder because of his previous occupation at the printing house where he worked before he was brought to the hospital. Despite his disabilities, he was one of the staff's most favored patients.[3]

The Crying Tree

The superstitious tale surrounding Old Book is somewhat unusual among ghost stories in that it was reportedly witnessed by hundreds of people. The story goes that when Old Book died his funeral was attended by hundreds of patients and staff members who became witnesses to the ghostly phenomenon that was about to transpire. As workers were attempting to lower what should have been a heavy casket they discovered that it instead felt empty. Suddenly, a crying sound echoed from the Graveyard Elm and everyone in attendance turned and looked, including Dr. Zeller, who later detailed Bookbinder and the surrounding events in his diary. They all claimed to have seen Old Book standing by the tree. They so believed it to be true that Zeller had the casketcorpse was found undisturbed in the coffin. Days passed and the tree began to die. Several of the grounds crewmen tried to remove the Graveyard Elm or the "crying tree", as it was also known. None were successful, citing the weeping emanating from the tree.[1] One man even tried to cut it down with an axe, but when striking the side, terrible wailing would sound as if Old Book himself was being chopped.[3] opened to ensure that Old Book still lay inside. As the lid was opened the crying ceased and Old Book's

In later years the elm was struck during a lightning storm and was finally removed from the potters field.



The Unfathomable Case of Rhoda Derry
Iris Nelson • August 12, 2012


Committed to the Adams County Almshouse from 1860 to 1904, Rhoda Derry scratched out her own eyes, punched out her own teeth, and ate anything she could get her hands on.

The description sounds incomprehensible – what is the rest of the story?

How were the indigent, insane, or the unfortunate treated in the first century of local city and county history? What housing conditions did Rhoda Derry experience?

Poorhouses, originally called almshouses, were also called poor farms and by 1917 county homes. They were tax-supported residential institutions that took in those who could not support themselves.

Public care of the poor in Illinois started in 1819, one year after Illinois became a state. The destitute were cared for by private citizens appointed by county officials. Within 20 years the farm-out system was replaced, and in 1839 county courts could establish poorhouses that also took in those persons of “bodily infirmity, idiocy, or other unavoidable cause.” In 1847 Adams County purchased the 80-acre farm of H. T. Ellis in Honey Creek Township for a poor farm. By May 1855 a larger farm was purchased in Gilmer Township. County records were mandated in 1874 to show admission, discharge, place of birth, cause of the dependence and other vital data.

Rhoda Derry, the daughter of Jacob and Rachel Derry of Lima Township, was admitted to the almshouse on Sept. 3, 1860. This came after a short stay at the Jacksonville Mental Hospital where she was deemed incurable and sent home. When her parents could no longer care for their daughter, she was sent to the almshouse located almost three miles southwest of Coatsburg. The 1870 Adams County census shows Rhoda at the almshouse at age 35 and noted she was blind and insane. Born in Madison County, Ind., on Oct. 10, 1834, she would have been 25 when admitted in 1860. Rhoda had shown signs of mental illness since she was 18.

A report from county poorhouse records to the General Assembly of Illinois in 1881 indicated there were 101 inmates of whom 36 were considered insane paupers. The report stated that the female patient (Rhoda) who “occupies a large wooden box filled with straw will not wear clothing, is covered with a canvass cloth, is in constant motion, has bruised herself from head to foot, and put out her own eyes.”
What was Rhoda’s story? Was she bewitched as she believed? In her late teen years, Rhoda fell in love with a neighbor boy, Charles Phenix. His mother, thinking that the Derry family had associations with witchcraft, did not want her son to marry Miss Derry. The rumored connection to witchcraft went back to Rhoda’s grandmother, Mary Derry of Pennsylvania. This story has been told in “Rhoda, A Tragic and True Story of a Farmer’s Daughter” by D. Doc Derry.
When marriage plans to Rhoda became known to Charles’s mother, the legend is that she threatened to bewitch Rhoda if she didn’t leave Charles alone. Rhoda had a fear of witches, and some believe this event was the foundation of her madness. What caused the initial stages of her decline will never be known.
What happened to this unfortunate woman is part of Adams County history as is the work of renowned folklorist, Anglican minister and Quincy native, Harry M. Hyatt, who gathered 95 percent of the data for his book, “Folk-Lore from Adams County, Illinois,” within 10 miles of Quincy. The rare published collection documented American superstitions and tales of witchcraft that were prevalent in this limited geographical area.
The Adams County Poor Farm was not equipped to care for the mentally ill. Reports of poor conditions surfaced in the newspapers from time to time. A Quincy Daily Journal story on Feb. 12, 1892, pointed to abuses including underfed and neglected inmates. The same report further indicates a “simple-minded woman had charge of the insane woman’s department, food distribution etc.” Rhoda Derry survived inhumane and unfathomable circumstances over more than four decades of extreme confinement. Shortly after the turn of the century her tragic story would dramatically and forever change state and national practices for the mentally ill.
For years Rhoda lived in a basket of straw. Reports from the Adams County home show that during this time her limbs became drawn up until her knees almost touched her chin. After a time, the basket was replaced with a square box on legs. The box had holes for her excretions to drop below. Mice and other vermin made their nests at her side. It was under these conditions that her long fingernails grew and she scratched out her eyes. With her fists she beat her face until she lost all her front teeth.
Her case became public when she was sent to the Bartonville Asylum west of Peoria in 1904. Dr. George A. Zeller, a physician, champion of the mentally disturbed and superintendent of the new facility, was aware of Rhoda from annual reports to the state board and wrote, “Send her along, God bless her.” At the asylum she lived for the first time in a bed and was bathed daily.
The Quincy Daily Whig of Sept. 21, 1904, reported her relocation to Bartonville with “Renews Stories of Witchcraft” and stated, “Her case is one which calls forth the fullest sympathy from the coldest heart, and all marvel at the longevity of a human being in her condition and with her afflictions.

Adams County attorney, James N. Sprigg, prepared the papers for the move. He asked Benjamin Bragg of Lima who had lived in the former home of the Derry family for information concerning her life. Bragg had known the daughter since 1851. Bragg recounted that Rachel Derry would often shoot at the imaginary evil spirits, which she believed were the cause of her daughter’s suffering. By 1904 Rhoda’s parents and six of her seven siblings were dead. A brother James and his wife Mary lived in Quincy from 1905 to 1910.
Under Dr. Zeller’s oversight Rhoda received humane care; Zeller was the only living person to whom she responded. During the two years before her death Dr. Zeller invited state legislators to view Rhoda and to secure greater services for the mentally disabled.
When Rhoda died Oct. 9, 1906, one day shy of her 72nd birthday, Dr. Zeller wrote to the Honorable S. B. McCrory, judge of the Adams County court, to inform him of her death. He wrote that the “passing of this most unfortunate woman calls for more than formal notice, as she was alone in her class and it is not likely that her duplicate could be found in the United States or in the world.” Rhoda was buried in grave number 217 on the grounds of the institution. In 1909 the Bartonville Asylum became the Peoria State Hospital.
