Geschiedenis
At the inaugural meeting of the Obstetrical Society of London in December 1858 the Chairman and first President, Edward Rigby, stated that the meeting was for the purpose of inaugurating a society to be devoted to advancing the knowledge of obstetrics and of the diseases of women and children. Membership was open to all practitioners in London and the provinces. During its lifetime the Society published annual volumes of Transactions of its meetings. It met for the last time in July 1907, in which year it was absorbed into the Royal Society of Medicine.
