Two categories on mental institutions/insane asylums that may need cross referencing

Steven Tibbetts just pointed out that we have two places that have mental institutions/insane asylums in overall categories.  One is under the United States History category.  Another is under social institutions.  Is there a way to cross reference since there is some overlap?

The original post about creating a category for a place is here: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/637290/how-do-make-new-category-for-the-state-lunatic-asylum-georgia?show=643249#c643249

Can you add the US History tag? This is one of those items that may need further review from interested parties, such as the Categorization and US History Projects.

Thanks for pointing that out, Steven.  I did re-tag with the US History tag.

no problem. I just happened to stumble on it. There are also ones for overseas as well, if you look for asylums in category search.
