Clough , Henry Gore , fl 1779-1820 , surgeon

Henry Gore Clough probably attended lectures given by William Hunter, and also John Hunter in 1779, as is evidenced by the lecture notes held in this collection and in the Wellcome Trust's manuscript collection. Clough is listed as a member of the Corporation of Surgeons from 1781 to 1798, residing first at Compton Street, and later at Berner's Street. From 1800 to 1824, Clough is listed as a member of the Royal College of Surgeons residing at Berner's Street. (From 1821 another Henry Gore Clough is listed as a member of the Royal College of Surgeons, residing at Norton Street. Presumably this is the son of Henry Gore Clough.) Sir Robert Drew's Commissioned Officers of the Medical Services of the British Army 1660-1960 Volume 1 lists Henry Gore Clough as an Assistant Surgeon to the 3rd Regiment of Foot Guards from the 25 Dec 1796, and Surgeon to the Light Infantry Battalion of the Brigade of Foot Guards from 14 May 1801. He is listed as being on half pay from 25 Jun 1802 and as having died on the 20 Apr 1838.
