Young Robert George (b. 1907-02-22 / d. 1998-07-21)

Despite the fact that he portrayed happy, well-adjusted characters, Young suffered from depression and alcoholism, which contributed to his suicide attempt in 1991. Afterwards he spoke candidly about his problems in an effort to encourage people to seek help with their own. The Robert Young Center for Community Mental Health, an affiliate of Trinity Regional Health System, located in Rock Island, Illinois, is a comprehensive community mental health center. It is named after Young for his work with passage of the 708 Illinois Tax Referendum.
Young died at his home in Westlake Village, California at 91 from respiratory failure. He was interred at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery, in Glendale, California.

Louise Augustine Gleizes, usually mentioned by her first name Augustine, born Louise Augustine Bouvier in the 9th arrondissement of Paris and died in Rennes, is a French maid. She is best known as the most notorious patient of neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot at the Salpêtrière hospital in Paris. When Augustine refuses to participate in the experiments, she is put in isolation. She ended up escaping from the hospital in 1880 dressed as a man. In 1895, then without a profession and domiciled in Clichy, she married in Saint-Denis Alphonse Ferrand, a rentier. The latter, born in Dol-de-Bretagne in 1855, who became a doctor like his two brothers, settled in Paris. He died, still married, in 1903 in Paramé. We lose track of Louise Gleizes after this date. Widow and "owner", she died in Rennes at the Saint-Yves clinic.
