Dr. Samuel Hazen's Account Book, 1852-1862 Dr. Samuel Hazen's Account Book, 1852-1862

This 290-page handwritten journal documents the medical practice of Dr. Samuel Hazen in Euclid, Ohio, from 1852 to 1862. It meticulously records patient visits, services rendered (including house calls and medicine provision), and fees collected. While specific ailments are rarely detailed (except for tooth extractions), the journal offers valuable insights into the daily life of a 19th-century physician and the medical needs of his community, including some Jewish families. The book includes a table of contents listing patients' names. The detached cover and loose pages indicate significant physical deterioration, but the content remains legible.
