I could check with my church about records. Life long UCC member. My two sisters were born at Deaconess but my brother and I were born at St John's. My Dad always said St John's had better babies. Worked at Deaconess for two summers as a dietary aide. Also had my tonsils out there. Someone disbelived me when I said they knocked me out with ether.

That was one stinky hospital and no I am not that old yet but that place was dated on medical practice.

The Nuns at St John's compromised my birth certificate. I was born in a Marion year, the nuns put my middle name down as Mary but my given name is May. I was born on my Aunt Mays birthday.

My God mother, a nurse, graduated from Deaconess.
