DR. D. L. BYRNE

  Dr. Byrne (also spelled Bryan) came from Philadelphia a young man and 
succeeded Dr. Rankin at Campbellstown.  He was in Campbellstown in 1822 and most 
likely a year earlier.  He is spoken of as a fine gentleman in manners and 
dress.

  Dr. Byrne was a member of the Medical Society in 1825 and was physician to the 
Almshouse in 1833.  He returned to Philadelphia, but the exact time he left St. 
Thomas is not now known.
