À propos de cet audio

 Hand Me Down is my podcast of history and family stories. The goal of this series is to tell some of the stories of my family in the context of the history in which those stories occurred. It’s part genealogy and part history that I hope you’ll enjoy. Visit the website at http://oconnor.home.blogGerald O'Connor Monde

    S5E27 - Stockton State
    Feb 21 2026

    A finish to the story of my great‑grandfather, Thomas O’Connor — a man whose life began hopefully in Ireland, endured immigration, hard work, three marriages, and ended during the Great Depression in a place few families ever talk about openly: Stockton State Hospital, one of California’s largest mental institutions. His story is not an easy one. But it is deeply human. And like so many family stories, it sits at the intersection of love, hardship, silence, and survival. http://oconnor.home.blog
