Biography
Dr. Jesse W. Barnes (1885-1949), practised medicine in Stockton, Calif.
(1917-1949). He received his M.D. degree from Cooper Medical College in San
Francisco in 1912. Following a brief period in Gustine, Calif. (1912-1916),
Barnes located in Stockton where he practiced internal medicine for the
remainder of his life.
Scope and Content
This collection consists of some correspondence and an unpublished 345
page typescript of a history of medical practice in San Joaquin County
(1847-c1947). The history contains photographs and biographies of practitioners
and buildings. Barnes apparently compiled and wrote "Doctors" over many years,
probably beginning during the 1930s.
