RE: Major Rathbone's accomodation in Hannover
Very nice research for us, Eva. Thank you. It is almost a comfort to see how beautiful a place Rathbone had to live out his days, since he had such a tormented existence. He was fortunate he had a name, position, means and a history, because I doubt he would have lived so well, otherwise.

Do you all suppose Rathbone was Schizophrenic and possibly, like many afflicted with that disease (?), it might not have shown up until he was in college? Somehow, as a mother, I would have had serious reservations about letting my daughter marry someone with a serious flaw like that.

I wonder if he had any "creative," "conspiratorial" experiences due to a psychotic break, while serving with the War Department?

Also, like Shelly, I don't think at that time, they allowed bodies to be shipped home for fear of disease, did they?
