John Henry Flatt was a patient at the State Hospital for five years prior to his death. There is no solid evidence he was buried there, but there is strong circumstantial evidence. His death certificate states he was buried the same day of his death. He did not have a spouse at that time. He is not buried in the family cemetery in Newbern. There is nothing in family records to indicate he was buried in Newbern. All of these things, and the culture of the time and place, indicate an immediate burial at the Hospital.
