During Charity Hospital’s service to New Orleans, it primarily served marginalized populations. As a teaching school, many of the bodies from those who died at Charity Hospital were later used in autopsies, dissections, or experiments. Physical examination of human remains exhumed from Charity Hospital Cemeteries 1 and 2 indicate that multiple fragments of human remains reveal saw marks, cut marks, and other types of modifications relate to pre- and post-mortem procedures (Halling and Seidemann 2017, Listi and Wilson 2020, Owsley 1993).
