Most likely it is in North Carolina although the story does not say it specifically. Brother makes a reference to being sent to "Dix Hill" for asking crazy questions. Dix Hill was a name for the Dorothea Dix Hospital for patients with mental disorders in Raleigh, North Carolina. The time period is 1911 to 1918 during World War I.
