MEDICINE


The first physician in the county was Dr. Alverson, who came in 1852, and 
remained two years.  Dr. John Tatman was 

the pioneer doctor.  He came in 1854, and was here till after the war, when he 
went to Muskegon.  He is now in 

Dakota, with his son Dr. J. C. Tatman, who also practiced in Newaygo for a 
short time after the war.  Dr. Charles 

Leonard came shortly after Dr. Tatman, and practiced until the war.  He then 
enlisted in the army, and served two 

years and a half.  Closing up his affairs here, he went to Muskegon with Dr.
