Virginia State Colony for Epileptics and Feebleminded
The Virginia State Colony for Epileptics and Feebleminded opened in 1910 as the Virginia State Colony for Epileptics near Lynchburg, Virginia in Madison Heights.
It was authorized by a 1906 bill written by eugenicist and social welfare advocate Aubrey Strode, in collaboration with eugenicists Albert Priddy and Joseph DeJarnette. Priddy served as the first superintendent of the colony. In 1914, Priddy asked the state legislature to expand the Colony's purview to include the feebleminded. The name was then changed to reflect the Colony's new mission. The Colony is notorious for having been the home of both Emma Buck and her daughter, Carrie Buck, who played a major role in the history of the American eugenics movement which culminated in the Supreme Court case ''Buck v. Bell''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Buck v. Bell 274 U.S. 200 )〕 The name was changed to ''Lynchburg State Colony'' in 1940, ''Lynchburg Training School and Hospital'' in 1954, and since 1983, has been known as the ''Central Virginia Training Center''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 CVTC History )〕 The records of Central Virginia Training Center can be found at the Library of Virginia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ead.lib.virginia.edu/vivaxtf/view?docId=lva/vi04335.xml )〕
