John Frelinghuysen Talmage I, AM, MD (March 11, 1833 – June 30, 1897) was a New Jersey homeopath in Brooklyn, New York.[1] He was a consulting physician to the Brooklyn Homeopathic Hospital.[2]
Early life[edit]
Talmage was born in Somerville, New Jersey, on March 11, 1833, to Thomas Talmage (b. 1799) and Sophia Van Vechten (b. 1801).[3] He was named after his mother's older brother-in-law, General John Frelinghuysen (1776–1833). His maternal grandfather was Michael Van Vechten and great grandfather was Dirck Van Vechten. His paternal uncle was Samuel K. Talmage, president of Oglethorpe University.[1] His first cousins were Thomas De Witt Talmage and John Van Nest Talmage. Another cousin was Thomas G. Talmage, the mayor of Brooklyn in 1845.[3]
Talmage was raised on his father's farm, and attended the local academy. He was then tutored by his father's pastor and friend, the Reverend T. W. Chambers of New York, who lived in Somerville, New Jersey.[1] John attended Rutgers College, New Brunswick, New Jersey, for the second term of his sophomore year, and graduated in 1852.[1][2] His diploma was signed by the then president of Rutgers, Theodore Frelinghuysen, the son of his namesake.[3] For six months Talmage pursued his medical studies in Huntsville, Alabama, and then attended a series of lectures in the medical department of the City University of New York.
