The '''Thomas C. McRae Memorial Sanatorium for Negroes''' was established near [[Alexander]], Arkansas, on January 1, 1930. The tuberculosis sanatorium was a segregated facility established under Jim Crow laws. It was the first such black sanatorium in the state.<br />
<br />
A plea for establishment of a sanatorium for African Americans in the state was first made by Miss Erle Chambers of the [[Arkansas Tuberculosis Association]] in 1919. Governor [[Thomas C. McRae]] managed to shepherd a sanatorium bill through the [[Arkanas General Assembly]] in 1923, but no funding was forthcoming. Twenty-six thousand dollars was appropriated five years later under the governorship of [[Harvey Parnell]].<br />
<br />
The first director of the sanatorium was African-American physician [[Hugh A. Browne]] of Wheatley-Provident Hospital in Kansas City. In January 1930 the institution opened with twenty-six patients. Later in the decade the Works Progress Administration constructed a new Chambers Building for performing surgeries and as a dining and craft hall. Browne retired in 1962, three years after suffering a stroke. The patient population at that time had grown to 390.<br />
<br />
In 1967 the McRae Sanatorium merged with the Booneville State Sanatorium. Booneville closed in 1972 as tuberculosis treatment regimens made the residential facility obsolete. <br />
