As to Dr. John Mosley Gaddis, I can add a few details. He did attend the
Medical College of the State of South Carolina, Charleston, SC, during the
1853-54 session, but he did not receive an M.D. degree from that institution.
At that time, he stated that he was from Chunkyville, MS, and that his
medical preceptor was Dr. J. R. Hughes. In 1877, he was practicing
medicine in Floyd, West Carroll Parish, LA, and on January 14, 1878,
he attended a convention in New Orleans as a delegate. I don't know
what type of convention. He is listed in the 1880 U.S. Census as
practicing medicine, 1st & 2nd Wards, West Carroll Parish, LA.
