GANDOUETT, Francis, "Doctor in Physick," of Bristol, England, came to 
Philadelphia before 1712.  his children were Solomon, Alexander, Jeremiah, 
Francis, Mary, and Henrietta.  His son Alexander, also a physician, lived in 
Chester in 1736, and in that year petitioned for a license to sell "Cordiall 
waters" of his own distillation by small measure, as well as to use it in his 
practice.  There is evidence that his practice extended many miles from Chester.
