  Notes: Founder. 1799. Born, 1752; youngest son of Dr. James Anderson, who emigrated from Scotland to Kent County, Md. Educated at University of Edinburgh, remaining long enough to procure a certifcate of merit, but not graduating. “He achieved in that neighborhood [Chestertown] a reputation which few have since enjoyed; his practice was extensive and his services always in demand; he was fond of discussing his cases carefully in consultation and it was seldom that he erred in judgment; his speech was plan [sic] and unaffected, always to the point; in his duty walk he was conscientious and eminently pious, and looked upon as a model man; his appearance was unique and striking; though small in stature and limping in gait, his dignity was never laid aside; his person was slender and arrayed in a gray cloth, long-waisted, shad-breasted coat, reaching far below the knee, with standing collar and ample pockets, olive-colored velvet breeches, with silver knee buckles, such as were worn by gentlemen of that time; gray home-knit stockings and low-quartered shoes, which were exchanged in winter for red-topped boots, a low-crowned, broad-brimmed beaver hat and white-lawned stock buckled behind. In early youth he united with the M.E. Church and wore the white-lawned stock and broad-brimmed hat so characteristic of the leader of that sect” (Wroth, Trans., 1873). He retired at about sixty to his seat in the country, where he died December 8, 1820.

  Notes: Born at Chestertown, Kent County, Md., 1774. “He was the oldest son of Dr. James M. Anderson and received his literary education at Washington College [Chestertown]; his medical studies were pursued under the immediate direction of Dr. Rush, of Philadelphia, and he attended lectures at the University of Pennsylvania; it is not known that he ever graduated, but he commenced practice with his father, and was, on his resignation, appointed one of the Examiners of the Eastern Shore; his business was select and renumerative, as he avoided extensive employment among the poorer classes; he enjoyed the reputation of being a skilled practitioner. He died at Chestertown very suddenly of heart disease, May 31, 1830.” “Of medium sixe, well formed, of comely and graceful person, lordly in his carriage and deportment, exceedingly careful in his dress, a refined, well-bred gentleman.” (Wroth, Trans., 1873)
