ELLIS ADAMS SELLWOOD LANIGAN About 6 months before they found Jimmy dead at the home; I dreamed of him. I dreamed that there was a ambulance rushing to the cemetery for his burial and I said "No take him back. He is not dead" On August 13, 1978 I was flying back to San Francisco when I started shaking and said to myself; I may have to go back. When I got home; my husband Ken said "Why aren't you unpacking?" and I said "I may have to go back" Then my sister Anna called to give me the info of my brother dying. I returned back on the same day.Dad picked me up at Des Moines airport and we drove to Ottumwa to plan the funeral.

Burial: Calvary Cemetery. Born at Ottumwa Iowa at family home on Pershing Avenue. Brother of Mary Ellen, Helen Elizabeth and Anna Marie Lanigan. Grandson of James and Anna Lanigan and Helen and Robert Bennett and natural grandfather Malen Sellwood. Died from a bad heart which he was born since being born a blue baby. He had a hard life. He died at the County Home. He was taken in 1948 and placed at Glenwood. We had lost track of him from the time he was taken from Glenwood State Hospital and placed unbeknown to us in Ottumwa. The home in Glenwood lost his records and could not tell us where he was transfered to. All those years we wondered if he had died. It wasn't until he fell on the ice at the home that they contacted the only Lanigan in Ottumwa and told them about Jimmy being in the hospital~~~That is how we finally found him but about 3 months later they found him dead in the rest room at the home~~I visited Ottumwa many times after I moved to California and didn't see him from 1960~1978. Unbelievable story but true. Inscription: "SON" Burial: Calvary Cemetery Ottumwa Wapello County Iowa, USA Plot: 38-2-2nd Created by: Mary Ellen Lanigan his sister.
