Last Account Book of
Dr. Charles T. Spilman / Spillman
Lowell / Paint Lick, KY
1876-1896

In Spring 2002 (the premiere issue), the editor began sharing information 
found in Dr. Charles T. Spilman (Spillman)'s last account book. 
Dr. Spilman treated soldiers at the Battle of Richmond during the 
Civil War and also followed up with patients injured in the circus train 
wreck in Paint Lick in the early 1880s. The account book also
records births at a time when vital records were not being kept in this area, 
so it can be an invaluable research tool for genealogists.

The front page of the book has Lowell, Ky., written on it, but it is 
not known if that was where his office was located. He seemed to 
have treated patients throughout the area (both Garrard and Madison 
counties). His home is the little white house on the Madison Co. side, 
overlooking downtown Paint Lick.

In most issues since, the editor has shared several pages from the book 
and also told a little bit about the people mentioned in those records. 
Among the many projects she has in mind is to scan each page of the book 
and sell copies of the CDs to researchers interested in this area. Stay 
tuned for more information on that project in upcoming issues!
To date, the following pages have been covered:
Spring 2002: Index and pp. 1-12
Summer 2002: updates on pp. 1-12 & Index, plus pp. 13-21
Autumn 2002: pp. 22-31
Spring 2003: pp. 32-35 (partial)
Summer 2003: pp. 35 (conclusion)-43
Autumn 2003: pp. 44-52
Spring 2004: pp. 53-62
Winter 2005: pp. 63-68

Below is the index for the entire book. Please note that
some names are not spelled correctly, but they are recorded as 
they appear in the book. Corrections will be made as 
new information becomes available.
