Old pharmacy poison register from Bluejacket when it was in
Indian Territory. The permit was issued to James H.
VanAusdale by the Territorial Board of Pharmacy in 1904.
The entries start in 1904 and go through 1922. The
purchasers of the poison are from various towns including
Bluejacket, Centraila, Welch, etc. It includes the type of
poison, the amount and the purpose for which it was
purchased. Quite fascinating. It is not in the best shape
but might be of interest to someone in your area. My great
grandfather, Newton Miller, was, I believe a doctor or
pharmacist in Bluejacket. My great aunt, Sybil Campbell,
lived in Bluejacket until the 1980's, I believe. Let me
know if anyone is interested and I will be glad to send the
register to them. Kent Faulkner, Modesto, CA |
