General Notes: Husband - Horatio Gates Jameson


He married, and they resided in Somerset, Pennsylvania; Wheeling, Virginia; Adams Town, Pennsylvania; Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and removed in
1810 to Baltimore, Maryland.

He studied medicine and became a very eminent physician. He practised for more than forty years in Baltimore, Maryland. He was the founder and president of the Washington Medical College of that city, and the first president of the Ohio Medical College in Cincinnati, Ohio. Dr. Jameson was very celebrated for his surgical knowledge and skill. He won a wide reputation for his successful treatment of the cholera, which was epidemic in 1832 in Philadelphia and in Baltimore. He wrote several medical books which were accepted as authority by the profession. Dr. Jameson spent some time with his family in Europe, and his distinguished learning and ability were recognized in the medical and surgical circles of the continent. He died while on a visit to New York city. Dr. Jameson left in manuscript a memoir of his distinguished father, Col. David Jameson, M. D., which was printed but not published by his grandson, Gen. Horatio Gates Jameson Gibson, U. S. A., to which was added an interesting appendix of genealogy and memoranda.
