Hi all, This is my first posting to the list. I wonder if there are directories which cover the medical profession in the 1900's (later end) as I heard a male relative was a surgeon. If so could SKS please direct me to where I may be able to locate it? Many thanks. Michele in Sydney Australia

I too, have a question regarding doctors. Apparently back in 1900's a person could go visit a doctor in secret. Those doctors had a special name, and for the life of me I cannot remember what they were called. I am busy getting my manuscript ready to submit to a publisher so I do not have time to go searching through my notes. If anyone knows about this please post, as I have always wanted to verify this name of a secret doctor as my character supposedly went to visit one in 1937. --Teri Los Angeles ----- Original Message ----- From: lynsmum To: IRL-GALWAY-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2005 7:23 PM Subject: [GALWAY] GALVIN as DOCTORS Hi all, This is my first posting to the list.
