Dr. Mercer (see Historical Sketch, College of Medicine) says that "during these thirty-seven years (1835-72) the degree of M.D., was conferred on 701 students." The follow­ ing list gives 721 names and follows in the main the General Catalogue of Hobart College. Rev. Dr. Hayes, of Phelps, N.Y., who did most of the work in preparing the General Catal'?jr~te referred to states that his list is compiled from the Records of the College, with· the Medical Register and the Syracuse Record (r887) at hand for reference, and that there are. many errors in the Record. We have given most weight to the Hobart Catalogue because it is nearest the sources, but have obtained by correspondence with the graduates many additional facts. Dr. Hayes has been very kind and obliging in furnishing information. A more determined effort than we have been able to make would throw' much more light on these records. We have added the abbreviation, hon. (honorary) for such degrees as were conferred thus, and not in course. However, these were conferred on their recipients Pro merito and they are not to be ranked in any sense as inferior to the degrees in course. ALUMNI WITH RECORDS 1655 4961. ADDISON NILES 4962.

  • First Medical College in Vermont: Castleton, 1818-1862
    V hbl, stx R 747.C2932W3 First medical college in Vermont: 3 T153 DD515D13 3 £tf S THE HISTORY OF THE FIRST MEDICAL COLLEGE IN VERMONT OC Oss «M5 1$ 1> <3 THE-5IRST MEDICAL COLLEGE IN VERMONT Castleton 1818-1862 FREDERICK CLAYTON WAITE VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY MONTPELIER 1949 COPYRIGHT 1949 BY VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY VERMONT PRINTING COMPANY, BRATTLEBORO, VERMONT FOREWORD This volume realizes the long-time hope that a history of Castleton Medical College could be written by Dr. Waite, foremost authority on the early medical colleges and on many other subjects of medical his- tory. With his history of the medical college at Woodstock, Vermont, which the Society had the honor to publish in 1945, this completes the story of the medical colleges in Vermont which had a great influence on a national scale until the Civil War interrupted. The projected history of the Medical Department of the University of Vermont, by another author, when completed and published, should bring up to date the history of all medical educational institutions in Vermont. It is impossible to praise too highly the great devotion and research and effort freely contributed by Dr. Waite. Many years have passed since he first considered it, and was urged to complete it, at his own expense. The Rutland County Medical Society has given $100 and Mr. George Adam Ellis has given $1,000 to pay for some of the expenses of preparation and publication which could not be met by the Society or by Dr. Waite. There have been other contributions of money and time.

  • Young Strong Having Been One of February 5, 1801. February 2, 1843, and January 24
    THE BENCH A ND BA R 145 region his parents were pioneers. Young Strong came to this county in 1814 or 1815, and was an early teacher. About the same time he began reading law, and was admitted to practice in 1822. He became not only a prominent member of the county bar, but is remembered as having been one of the most eloquent orators of the region, and an extensive and successful practitioner, particularly in criminal cases. Judge Strong served as first judge of the Common Pleas by appointment, April 13, 1838, and as county judge by election in November, 1855, in all a period of nine years. He was district attorney of Tioga county from July, 1836, to July, 1838, and from February, 1844, to June, 1847. He represented the twenty-second district in the congress of 1845-47. Later he removed to Waterloo, N. Y., and there he died April 5, 1866. Alanson Munger, the last of the old Common Pleas judges in Tioga county, was born in Ludlow, Mass., February 5, 1801. He removed to Madison county, N. Y., in 1827, was graduated at Hamilton college, and thence came to Owego in 1840. He formed a law partnership with Stephen Strong, which continued two years, but aside from this partnership Judge Munger always prac ticed alone. He is remembered as a safe counsellor, a good trial lawyer, and a man of sterling integrity and worth. He was ap pointed first judge February 2, 1843, and surrogate January 24, 1844. He was elected district attorney in 1850, and special county judge in 1861.

  • The First Woman Doctor CHAPTER
    The First Woman Doctor The Story of Elizabeth Blackwell, M.D. By RACHEL BAKER Who ever heard of a woman doctor? It is 1847. People think Elizabeth Blackwell is either mad or wicked to dream of such a career. But what a dream this is! And no one can tear this extraordinary girl away from it. Crowds laugh and jeer at her. Women pull their skirts away when she passes. Mobs threaten her. No one will rent her a room in which to live. No medical school wants to admit her. But dauntless Elizabeth does become a doctor - the first woman doctor, and one of the great pioneers in medicine. How she does it is a truly thrilling story. CHAPTER ONE Three little girls in long, gray Quaker-like gowns, and white dimity bonnets, were walking with their governess and talking quite seriously. "When I grow up," said Anna, eldest of the Blackwell children, and always believed to be the cleverest, "I shall be a writer." Anna was just a little over ten, and for several years had been making up verses and songs. Marion, always dreamy, thought for a moment. "I think," she said, "that I'll just read." The governess smiled. "And ruin your eyes, I'll venture, Miss Marion! You wouldn't have half so many headaches if you didn't read so much!" But Elizabeth who was only six, and always tagging along with her two older sisters, came up rather breathlessly. "I don't know," she said, "what I'm going to be." She put out her lower lip thoughtfully, and as usual took time making up her mind.

SHAFER AND MY MOTHER LOUISE MeGINNIS SHAFn PREFACE DURING the years from 1783 to r8so, the medical pro­ fession was in transition from medieval customs to modern methods. The American medical profession shared in the problems of world medicine. At the same time, it faced the problems of a new and expanding country. This mono­ graph examines medical practices in America during these years and traces the history of the American medical pro­ fession. As such, it is concerned with the regular, or allo­ pathic, physician; other practitioners are discussed only inci­ dentally as they impinge upon the development of the regular profession. For the inception of this work and for scholarly guidance in much of it, I am deeply indebted to Dixon Ryan Fox, formerly Professor of History in Columbia University. After his departure to become president of Union College, Professor John A. Krout generously and helpfully gave his time and attention.

  • Medicine and Illness: Health Care in Geneva
    Medicine and Illness: Health Care in Geneva The development of health care in Geneva followed national trends and the growth of the village. In the 19th century, physicians made home visits but with few medicines at hand. Residents struggled with the mysteries of contagious diseases in the 19th and 20th centuries that brought fear and death. Geneva was unusual in having a medical college and, indeed, in graduating the first woman in America to earn a medical degree. Though Geneva lagged behind other communities in establishing a hospital, today there is access to state of the art health care. This 1798 illustration shows Geneva in its early years. The village center and many early streets were located on the hill above the lake. People believed the air was healthier than down by the lakeshore where residents often contracted “Genesee fever” which was malaria. In the 19th century medical colleges were centered in urban areas. An exception was Fairfield Medical College (1812-1840) in Herkimer County, New York. It awarded over 600 medical degrees and many of the first teachers at Geneva Medical College (right) had studied at Fairfield. Today the Finger Lakes Health System’s services include surgery, acute illness care, physical rehabilitation, and long-term care. Specialist practices include nephrology, podiatry, pediatrics, cardiology, orthopedics, and many more. I’ll Be There: Nursing Schools in Geneva From 1898-1934 the Geneva Hospital ran a training school for professional nurses. It addressed the need for trained nurses but ended when administrators thought it was too expensive. Two decades later the Geneva Adult Education Program and Geneva General Hospital began a practical nursing school.

  • Biographical Notices of Graduates of Yale College
    BIOGRAPHICAL N OTICES OF GRADUATES OF Y ALE COLLEGE INCLUDING T HOSE GRADUATED IN CLASSES LATER THAN 1815, WHO ARE NOT COMMEMORATED IN THE ANNUAL OBITUARY RECORDS BY FRANKLIN B OWDITCH DEXTER, LITT.D. SAISSUED A SUPPLEMENT TO THE OBITUARY RECORD NEW HAVEN— 1913 PREFACE Biographical S ketches of the graduates of Yale College to 1815 have already been published, in six octavo volumes ; and when it became necessary to bring this series of Sketches to a close, the author was requested by the Cor poration of the University to compile a supplementary volume, of those deceased graduates of the College, of Classes later than 1815, who have not been included in the Obituary Records, published annually since 1860. fMany o the notices in the volume thus compiled have a certain sameness, as commemorating those who died too soon to have achieved much; while another considerable group consists of those who were early lost sight of, or whose distant residence has obscured their later history. The time which could be given to the task of compilation has limited the amount of research, but it is hoped that the results justify the design. BIOGRAPHICAL N OTICES GRADUATES OF YALE COLLEGE CLASSF O l8l6 REUBEN B OOTH, son of Reuben H. and Sarah Booth, was born in Newtown, Connecticut, on November 26, 1794. The family removed to Kent in his boyhood, and he entered Yale at the opening of Sophomore year. In 1814 his father, who was a wool-carder, was drowned in the Housatonic River, leaving him dependent on his own exertions.

  • 1 Reconciling Femininity and Professionalism: Female
    Reconciling Femininity and Professionalism: Female Physicians in 19th Century America Ayesha Anwar Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Prerequisite for Honors in History May 2016 copyright 2016 Ayesha Anwar 1 Acknowledgements: This project would not have been possible without the support of my parents, friends, and of course, my advisor, Professor Ryan Quintana. You believed in me, often when I didn’t believe in myself. To my mother and father, who listened to me ramble on and on about the difficulty of writing a thesis as if they weren’t saving lives every day. I would also like to thank the Schwarz Foundation, for funding my travel to different archives. The experience of doing archival research was incredibly valuable in my work on this project, as well as being valuable in and of itself. To the librarians and archivists at the archives I visited—The SUNY Upstate Medical University, the National Library of Medicine, and the Wellcome Collection— this project would not be possible without your help. To the entire history department at Wellesley College—from you I learned how to study history, how to examine different societies at different times and find commonalities, while being considerate of nuance and difference. From you I learned how to learn history, how to discuss and debate and decide without offense. From you I learned, finally, how to write history, how to give of myself in my work, how to give of my opinions, how to take my understanding of the ways in which the world worked, and how to apply that understanding to the specific questions I sought to address.

  • Elizabeth Blackwell Breaking Barriers in Medicine Cassie Chance Senior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 2125
    Elizabeth Blackwell Breaking Barriers in Medicine Cassie Chance Senior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 2125 Chance 2 The medical profession has been primarily male dominated for most of its history. In the early 1800’s women around the world attempted to become doctors but could not enter any universities to take advantage of the developing medical science because they were not accepting women. One exception to this was a woman named Elizabeth Blackwell. On January 23, 1849, Blackwell became the first woman to earn a medical degree in the United States from Geneva College in upstate New York, and then became the first licensed female physician in the world. She graduated top in her class and became an inspiration to other women. This achievement and inspiration led to twenty women completing medical training within three years of her graduation. These women were accepted into colleges throughout the United States and Europe. Blackwell’s accomplishments paved the way for women to take on significant roles by breaking obstacles and barriers within the educational and medical communities in a traditionally male dominated field. Blackwell was born on February 3, 1821, in Bristol, England. Debra Michals, stated, “Blackwell was the third of nine children of Hannah Lane and Samuel Blackwell, a sugar refiner, Quaker, and anti-slavery activist” (National Women’s History Museum). Blackwell also had a famous brother, Henry, an abolitionist and women’s suffrage supporter who married Lucy Stone, a women’s rights activist. She also had a sister, Emily Blackwell, who followed in her footsteps and also became a doctor.
