William G Sedgwick [Thomas Sedgwick / Martha Davis] William was a medical man describing himself variously as member of the Royal College of Surgeons, medical general practicioner and, in 1901, retired surgeon. In 1841 he is a surgeons assistant in the household of a Samuel Proctor. According to his South African family, William assisted Lister in December 1846 at the first operation using anaesthetics and was an expert in cholera. He is supposed to have been surgeon to the troops in the East (Indies?) however this seems very like the career history of William Sedgwick Saunders better known as a witness in one of the murders of Jack the Ripper. Since William has been found in the English census returns from 1861 to 1901 more investigation is needed into his career. His children are described in 1901 as a masseuse, merchants clerk and member of the stock exchange - no profession given for Norah. It is believed that there are no descendants of this family. |
