WWHI

WWHI stands for Western Washington Hospital for the Insane

I found that one of the Killea's from Queets was admitted there,as a patient.
And in 1900 I found out that several others from Queets became employed there.
The Dickey sisters, as nurses of course.
Fred H. Colby (Elsie's soon to be husband) was employed there.
Dora Head was Head Matron @ WWH for Insane
and...
John Krautkremer Shoemaker @ WWH for Insane

so we see that there are six Queets former residents moved to Steilacoom by 1900.
