The civil war records of my ancestor, Abel Carnes (later Curnes), reference "doctoring with Dr. Stoner" upon Abel's discharge for disability from Co. H, 73rd Illinois Volunteer Infantry in October 1862. He also received advice (and unsuccessfully attempted to rent land from) Mrs. Camel, the widow of a doctor. Does anyone know where Dr. Stoner resided or the nature of his practice (he is also stated to have owned a drugstore)? Do records of his practice exist? Mrs. Camel? Both Dr. Stoner and Mrs. Camel advised Abel to ignore the army doctor's advice, which was "to get the very best whiskey and use it three times a day." Thanks. E.J.
