Additional Information
Dates: 1775-1857 Notes: ARCHER, ROBERT HARRIS, M.D., the second son of John Archer, M.B., was born in Harford County, Maryland, August 28, 1775. He received as good an English education as was at that time afforded in his native country; becoming also quite proficient in Latin, and acquiring some knowledge of French. After the usual medical course in his father’s office, he completed his studies in the University of Pennsylvania, in 1794-5, and 1795-6. In the spring of 1798, he moved to Baltimore, where for about seven years he enjoyed a large practice. Soon after settling in that city, and while the yellow fever was raging there, he was appointed physician in to the City Hospital, which was crowded with sufferers from that disease. Seized himself with the epidemic, he came near losing his life. In 1799 he was commissioned by the Governor, Surgeon of the 27th regiment of State Militia. On the 5th of April, 1805, he married Miss Mary Stump, daughter of John Stump of Cecil County. In the autumn of the same year, on the invitation of a former student of his father (Dr. Author May), he removed to Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He does not seem to have received very favorable impressions of that city, which at that time was a very paradise of quacks, where scientific skill had small chance of appreciation. Accordingly, in 1809, he returned to Maryland, where he practiced medicine (in connection with farming) in Cecil County, for ten years, when he was elected to the State Legislature, and at the expiration of his term was re-elected. In 1822 he removed to Harford County, having purchased a farm within a mile of his birthplace. In 1823 he was appointed by the Legislature one of the Governor’s council of five, and re-appointed yearly for four consectutive years, embracing two years of Governor Steven’s term, and the whole of Governor Kent’s. The loss of nearly all his property in his old age, compelled him to practice his profession even after he had become an octogenarian — his intellect remaining in extraordinary vigor. His professional career thus extended considerably over sixty years. During the last decade of his life, he served for several years as Judge of the Orphans’ Court. He died at his home, of apoplexy, 19th May, 1857, in his eighty-second year. His widow survived him seven years. He was a large man, of strong constitution and fine appearance. He left six sons and a daughter. Four of the former married and had children. Three of his sons and as many of his grandsons served in the Confederate Army. Dr. Archer’s mind was of no common order, and in professional skill he was surpassed by few of his contemporaries. Socially, he formed the warmest attachments. For more than half a century he was a member of, and during the greater part of that time an elder, in the Presbyterian Church. Cyc. 42 Source: Dielman – Hayward File.
