Notes |
- I did show his death as 1743 - 1759 seems correct
- (Research):In 1712 he became chirurgeon-general of the Leeward Islands, where his brother Walter was governor from 1711 to 1714; by June 1714 he was in Antigua. He was admitted a foreign brother to the Company of Barber??"Surgeons in 1717. In 1719 Douglas was giving anatomical lectures at his house in Fetter Lane, London; he was living in Lad Lane, near Guildhall, in 1735, and Downing Street from 1739. Douglas's first publication was A syllabus of what is to be performed in a course of anatomy, chirurgical operations, and bandages (1719).
