Hiram came to the asylum in Oct 1897 from Great Falls, MT.
Hiram had epilepsy and his death after 12 and a half years in the asylum was attributed to epileptic dementia and status epilepticus. He had not married.
The newspaper describing his symptoms lists his father as John W Johnson, but his death certificate lists his father as A F Johnson. He is likely the son of John W Johnson and Amanda Thrifton Owens. This would make him the brother of Alexander, Iris, Elizabeth "Bessie", Sarah, Rachel, Benjamin, Sidney D and Jonathan "Nathan". In census after census the family name is shown as Johnson but in the end his father's obituary givens the surname as Johnston.
