to all of the Issues
In an effort to make this interesting set of Medical Journals
available for Missouri Genealogical and Historical Researchers, I am
trying to figure out how the Content is structured and what might be
the best way of presentation.
There are 97 issues on
the Archive.org Site. All of which can be viewed, searched and
downloaded.
Volumes 1-49 (June 1904-1952) of the Journal of the Missouri State
Medical Association
and
50-97 (1953-2000) of Missouri Medicine are available online.
The best way to inspect the Content is to take a look at an Index.
Here are the Index pages for the 1904 Issue
Genealogocal Research always includes the search for both Biographies
and Obituaries.
Fortunately for us, these Journals have both!
But... over the years, the Editors change the way they are listed.
The first 5 or 6 years have Obituaries listed on Page Numbers, no names
in the Index.
About 1908 or 1909, They began listing Obits by Name in the Index, Like
This:
https://archive.org/details/journal6190miss/page/827/mode/1up
A generic Search: 'Obituary' will bring up Items
https://ia903108.us.archive.org/17/items/journal1719miss/journal1719miss.pdf
A generic Search: 'Deceased' will bring up Items
https://ia903108.us.archive.org/17/items/journal1719miss/journal1719miss.pdf
Individual Searches for Names will always work.
"Jones", for Instance [Without the Quotes
https://ia903108.us.archive.org/17/items/journal1719miss/journal1719miss.pdf
In the later years, the Medical Journals did not contain many full
Obituaries,
instead they included what I call "Embellished Death Notices" under the
heading "In Memoriam":
Like This
Barbara Spies, MD, 73,
Louisburg, KS, died November 9,1996. Dr. Spies graduated fromthe
University of Kansas Medical
School in 1952, interned at Menorah Hospital, practiced in Kansas. From
1978 until she
retired in June of 1987, she practiced in Louisburg.
January
1997 Issue
The Missouri Journals also have Membership Information, County Rosters,
Changes of Address
and "News Items" which are always interesting.
