Modern Drugstores: Created by Civil War Soldier Eli Lilly by Norm Dasinger
Modern Drugstores: Created by Civil War Soldier Eli Lilly By Norm Dasinger Have you ever wondered why you have to see a doctor for a prescription in order to get medicine? You know what you need but you still have to visit a doctor! You can thank, or not, Eli Lilly a Union officer from the Civil War. Lilly, born in Baltimore, Maryland, grew up mostly in Indiana. He was always interested in chemistry as a boy and became an apprentice in a drugstore in Lafayette, Indiana in 1854. He loved it! By 1861 he was married, had a son, and was the owner of his own drugstore in Greencastle, Indiana. When the Civil War began, he enlisted in the US army and was soon an officer recruiting for the formation of an artillery unit. The 18th Indiana Artillery, known as Lilly’s Battery, made their initial baptism into combat in Kentucky and Tennessee in 1862. Soon attached to Wilder’s Lightening Mounted Infantry Brigade, Lilly and his men became some of the very best cannoneers in the Army of the Tennessee. By 1864, Eli had decided he needed a change and joined the 9th Indiana Cavalry. Quickly however, he was captured in Alabama, by Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Shipped to Mississippi he finished the Civil War as a POW. Eli Lilly during the Civil War He liked the climate and opportunities Mississippi might afford a young entrepreneur, so after the War he relocated to the state to become a farmer. It was a disaster. His wife died of malaria and Lilly was broken both mentally and financially.

Colonel Eli Lilly (1838-1898) Eli Lilly Was Born July 8, 1838, at Fairmont Plantation on Old Liberty Road in Baltimore, Maryland
Colonel Eli Lilly (1838-1898) Eli Lilly was born July 8, 1838, at Fairmont Plantation on Old Liberty Road in Baltimore, Maryland. Named after his grandfather, he was the first of 11 children born to Gustavus and Esther Kirby Lilly. Eli was still an infant when the family moved to Lexington, Kentucky, and eventually settled on a farm in Gallatin County, near Warsaw, Kentucky, where they remained for more than a decade. Determined that his children would have an opportunity to acquire the best possible education, Gustavus relocated the family in the spring of 1852 to Greencastle, Indiana, home of a noted Methodist school, Indiana Asbury College (now DePauw University). From 1852 to 1854, young Eli attended the university, where he completed courses in the school’s Primary Department, “designed to furnish young men the means of acquiring a common English education and preparing them for admission to the Scientific or the Preparatory Department.” During this time, he also served as printer’s devil on Asbury Notes, the college newspaper. In the summer of 1854, the 16-year-old graduate traveled 60 miles by train to visit his Uncle Caleb and Aunt Hennie Lilly in the nearby town of Lafayette. A thriving town in the north- central part of the state, Lafayette was filled with interesting sights and shops that promised an exciting visit. One shop in particular, the Good Samaritan Drugstore, captured his attention. Reared in a religious home, young Eli Lilly knew the Biblical significance of the sign and was encouraged to take a closer look. He lingered near the front door, gazing at the walls lined with rows of curiously shaped bottles and jars and smelling the strange aromas that wafted into the street.
