  • Queen Victoria's Medical Household
    Medical History, 1982,26:307-320. QUEEN VICTORIA'S MEDICAL HOUSEHOLD by A. M. COOKE* On the 24th of May, 1819, at Kensington Palace it was announced that: Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent was safely delivered of a Princess this morning at a quarter past five o'clock. Her Royal Highness and the Princess are doing well. D. D. Davis J. Wilson DRS. DAVIS AND WILSON were the first of a long line of medical men who attended, or were appointed to attend, Queen Victoria throughout her lifetime of nearly eighty-two years. Also assisting at the birth was a midwife, Friaulein Siebold, who, although she also held a medical qualification, did not sign the bulletin. It is an interesting coincidence that the Frilulein also attended at the birth of Prince Albert. We do not know what other medical attendants Victoria had as a child or before she came to the throne, but we know the medical staff of her father and mother. When ill, doubtless she would have been attended by one of them.

This is thought to have been part of a plan by her mother and her mother's Comptroller, Sir John Conroy, to make her mother Regent.

  • Innes Smith Collection
    Innes Smith Collection University of Sheffield Library. Special Collections and Archives Ref: Special Collection Title: Innes Smith Collection Scope: Books on the history of medicine, many of medical biography, dating from the 16th to the early 20th centuries Dates: 1548-1932 Extent: 330 vols. Name of creator: Robert William Innes Smith Administrative / biographical history: Robert William Innes Smith (1872-1933) was a graduate in medicine of Edinburgh University and a general practitioner for thirty three years in the Brightside district of Sheffield. His strong interest in medical history and art brought him some acclaim, and his study of English-speaking students of medicine at the University of Leyden, published in 1932, is regarded as a model of its kind. Locally in Sheffield Innes Smith was highly respected as both medical man and scholar: his pioneer work in the organisation of ambulance services and first-aid stations in the larger steel works made him many friends. On Innes Smith’s death part of his large collection of books and portraits was acquired for the University. The original library is listed in a family inventory: Catalogue of the library of R.W. Innes-Smith. There were at that time some 600 volumes, but some items were sold at auction or to booksellers. The residue of the book collection in this University Library numbers 305, ranging in date from the early 16th century to the early 20th, all bearing the somewhat macabre Innes Smith bookplate. There is a strong bias towards medical biography. For details of the Portraits see under Innes Smith Medical Portrait Collection.

    Book Reviews PORPHYRIA-A ROYAL MALADY* An Essay Review by W. H. McMENEMEY FARMFR GEORGE was a mad king, and so we lost the American colonies: such in brief is the recollection of what the man-in-the-street garnered at school. It is remarkable that so little attention has been paid to the nature of George III's malady, and it is a sad reflection on British medical historians that during the 200 years that have elapsed since his first overt attack of illness, there have been only two serious studies on this subject, both of them by Americans. Ray (1855) believed that the disorder was recurrent mania although he found no account of earlier symptoms suggestive of an ill-balanced mind in either the illustrious but notably abstemious patient or in members of his family. Guttmacher (1941) accepted the diagnosis of manic-depressive psychosis put forward by Jelliffe (1931) invoking, on the then fashionable basis of psychopathology, self-blame, indecision and frustration on the part of the king as the underlying reasons for the symptoms. Yet, as is clear from the concise and well- documented account by Doctors Macalpine and Hunter, the contemporary opinion of courtier-physicians, and 'mad-doctors' alike with few exceptions, the disorder of the mind was of the 'consequential' rather than the 'original' type, that is to say, it was presumed to be the result of bodily disease and was not just plain lunacy. For instance Rowley (1790), a commentator of the time, postulated the existence of 'some prevailing irritating acrimony' as a cause of the mental symptoms in the illness which occurred in the winter of 1788-9 while Pargeter (1790) seems to have been of the opinion that the royal patient was suffering from a form of delirium: Addington (1788) wondered how a diagnosis of mania could be justified in the absence of any preceding phase of melancholia.
