Malin Hospital

Old Malin Hospital, then was Nursing Home. Closed now

Wytheville Sanitarium and Hospital, opened Nov. 28, 1954. Built by Seventh Day Adventists, who still have an active church adjoining the property.

They also opened a hospital in Tappahannock. My wife worked there

Hello Robert,
This is an interesting building. Did the hospital your wife worked at also look like this one?

My Great Grandparents lived in the circle behind the hospital. You can see half of their house in the top right corner in front of the barn.

Hello Debbie,
Was this the only photo you found of their property?

Yes, this is the only photo I found of their house. I would love to find a picture of the whole house.

The house Debbie Smith mentioned has changed. I took a picture last year and posted it on FB. Wish I could upload here.
