Special February 23, 1938
Dr. Guilford Died in Bluffton
Greatly Beloved English Born Woman Had Helped Many Persons Without Pay
Bluffton, SC Feb 23, 1938. Mrs. Jane Hore Guilford, affectionately known in this community as "Doctor" Guilford, died at her residence here following an illness of several months. She was 81 years old.
Mrs. Guilford was born and reared in Liverpool, England, but came to this country to live after her marriage to the late George S. Guilford, a native of Portland, Maine. She moved to Bluffton fifty years ago, shortly after which her strange career as a medical practitioner began with no training either in medicine or nursing. Mrs. Guilford effected several miraculous cures among her neighbors and her fame as a wonderful doctor began to spread through out the countryside.
It was not long before buggies and wagons from homes many miles in the country began bringing the sick and afflicted to her home for treatment. There were babies with colic, young people with measles, mumps, and chicken pox, and old people with diverse pains and aches. All to be treated by this little woman doctor who had neither experience nor training to qualify for the overwhelming task.
But Mrs. Guilford was not daunted. If the Lord wanted her to be a doctor, a doctor she would be. She would roll up her sleeves and go to work. Sometimes with a cathartic of her own compounding. Some times with a salve or liniment she had made herself. Sometimes with nothing but her bare hands. There were few pains she said that couldn't be rubbed out provided you knew how to rub.
As times went on, her practice grew to such extent that her husband was forced to build an office in the yard to keep the patients from running the house. No sign was tacked up on that little office, nor office hours kept, but morning, noon, and night patients would come and knock with a big stick on its front door until "Doctor" Guilford would show her head from the kitchen window.
Often she was called from her bed in the small hours of the morning to go on a maternity case ten or more miles in the country or across the river to one of the islands. Once during a storm, she braved the mountainous waves of May River in a tiny bateau in the dead of the night to answer a call from General Cornelius Cottage on the other side. Rich or poor, white or colored, Mrs. Guilford always answered her calls. Seldom did she charge and seldom was she given remuneration of any kind, but that was unimportant to her. She had a small though adequate private income and she gave all of her time, her energy, her skill because she was intensely interested in the practice of medicine and because she loved people.
Mrs. Guilford was a close friend of Dr. James H. Mellinchamp, eminent botanist and physician who lives in Bluffton until his death a number of years ago and he frequently complimented her medical ability by call her into consultation on his more serous cases. Other doctors who came to Bluffton to practice likewise paid tribute to her knowledge and skill.
There will be no more of Dr. Guilford's compounds, no more of her salves, and liniments, inspiring optimism that would never "die" until the grim hand of death had actually struck, but the memory of the little woman who knew her will continue to live in the hears of Blufftonians for generations to comes.
Her sister, Frances Hore Hasel, her niece and grandniece are nurses. Her grandniece presently works in a doctor's office in Isle of Mann, British Isles.

Notes for GEORGE SEWELL GUILFORD:
According to family ledgend, George Sewell reputedly stowed away on one of his father's ships. Once he was found, he was put to work as a cabin boy. While in England, he met and later married Jane Hore. Other's say that he was the sea captain and was ship wrecked at Liverpool, England. He put up there until his ship was repaired.
George enlisted with the US Navy in 1869 at Malaga Spain. Renvezvous records, p.366- EOV, show him as enlisting on 10/18/1869. Muster Rolls for the USS Richmond show varying enlistment dates. These dates are noted with each Muster Roll listing. I am awaiting an actual copy of his enlistment to verify enlistment date. According to all Muster Rolls, George was 5'7", had grey eyes, brown hair, and fair skin.

My branch of the Clegg family lived in the Gorton and Ardwick areas of Manchester during the late 18th and 19th centuries. I have traced back the direct line to Samuel Clegg who married Hannah Hayes (Heyes) in 1799 but I am struggling to identify Samuel's parents. Samuel and Hannah had at least eight children (Mary, John Low, Samuel, Charles Henry, Hannah, Esther, Emanuel and Elizabeth) dating from 1806 to 1824. If anybody can identify Samuel's parents I would be most grateful.
