Just another comment about Daniel and Lysander Meeker. Both were doctors. Daniel, the father, first practiced in LaPorte, then went to Keokuk Iowa to teach in the Iowa School of Medicine. When the Civil War started in 1861 he became a Union Army Surgeon and when the war was over he returned to LaPorte and helped to start the Indiana Medical School at LaPorte. His son, Lysander, had some of his medical training in the Iowa School in Keokuk (and married Cornelia VanSicklin there) and then returned to LaPorte where he practiced (perhaps with his father) then alone after his father died in 1876. Eventually he moved his practice to Chicago.
