HOGAN, M. D., was born at Talladega, this State, in 1838. His parents were James A. and Virginia C. (Tarrant) Hogan, native Kentuckians, and of Scotch-Irish descent. His father was a merchant. Samuel M. Hogan received his literary education at Talladega, and attended medical lectures at Nashville, Tennessee, in the session of 1856—'57. When the war came on, he entered Company F, of the fifty-first Alabama cavalry as a private, was subsequently promoted to the position of surgeon, and was on post and hospital duty until the close of the war. Returning from the war. Dr. Hogan settled and commenced practicing medicine in Union Springs and in 1873 graduated from the medical department of the University of Louisville, Ky. Dr. Hogan returned to Union Springs, took up his practice and has since devoted himself untiringly thereto. The result has been that he has won a reputation which extends far beyond the confines of his immediate locality. He is well known all over the South, and favorably known as a physician and surgeon in various portions of the United States. Dr. Hogan's office is one of the best equipped in the way of surgical instruments in the State: he has spent for these alone thousands of dollars. He acts on the wise plan that a physician should always be prepared for any emergency that arises, and it is his motto never to allow a case to pass him for lack of attention. In September, 1887, Dr. Hogan was a member of the International Medical Congress, which met at Washington, D. C. He is a member of the County Medical Society and the State Medical Association: has been President of the former and Councilor in the latter. He is also President of the County Board of Censors. Dr. Hogan is a permanent member of the American Medical Association. Our subject was married in 1865, to Miss Sallie T., daughter of Thornton M. and Ann E. (McLamare) Baugh, of Chambers County, Ala. The family belong to the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. Additional Comments: Extracted from: Northern Alabama: Historical and Biographical Birmingham, Ala.: Smith and De Land 1888 PART III.
