Psychiatric patient restrained in a chair, 1869 The man seen here is a criminal, who was being restrained while having his picture taken. I couldn't find anything about him online, such as his age, name or mental health records, but assuming that he was in an asylum, it can be presumed he had some mental or behavioural issues. However, I was able to find that this man was in the West Riding Lunatic Asylum. This was a mental health facility in Yorkshire England, which was opened in 1818 and closed in 1995.

She was a member of the expedition of Hernán Cortés to Mexico. Born in Spain, her date of birth and of death are unknown. She w...
