Lincoln County Never Trusted Doctor Piggott

Record #:
8966
Abstract:
Dr. A.S. Piggot moved to Lincoln County in 1861 and was not trusted because of his Yankee background. In 1862, one of only five Confederate laboratories specialized in wartime drugs opened in Lincoln County, attended by Piggott and his assistant, Wizzell. Little is known of the laboratory's operation during the war, but adequate anesthetics were provided for the battlefield.
