Dr McCaull - Whittlesey - medical qualifications
« on: Monday 02 May 22 04:41 BST (UK) »
Whittlesey seems to be the topic du jour on this board atm!

Just wondering if anyone can decipher the qualifications in this entry for Dr Charles Nathaniel McCaull in the 1871 Whittlesey census please? image attached

Think the first one might be MRCS (Member of the Royal College of Surgeons)

Not sure about the second one.

He also had a L.S.A. qualification as well.

If you google his full name a few Gazette and medical journal references come up.

Was definitely M.R.C.S.
