The Friends of Hathorn Historical Society will host medical historian Brian Altonen speaking about the medical practice of Dr. Daniel Wood of Florida, NY during the Revolutionary War.

Saturday, January 22nd 2022
2:30pm

Wood was a physician with Hathorn's militia and the Continental Army, serving at Valley Forge and other key locations. His medical notebook of "recipes" survives, and Altonen will use examples from the manuscript to show how it reveals medical theory and methods of the mid to late 18th century.

All are welcome to this free presentation, which follows the Friends annual business meeting at 2PM.

Masks will be required for the safety of all.

In case of heavy snow, delay information about the event will be posted at hathornhouse.wordpress.com.
