   Citation Text: John Dowling (pastor) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
   The Reverend John William Dowling was the author of The History of Romanism from the Earliest Corruptions of Christianity to the Present Time.
   Personal life
   Born in England, he moved to New York with his wife and two children in the year 1832. At this time the cholera was raging as an epidemic. Leaving his family in New York to pay a flying visit to Catskill, he returned to find his wife and one of his children dead from this dreadful disease - already in their coffins, prepared for burial. Overwhelmed with grief, he returned with his remaining child to Catskill, where he became the pastor of the Baptist Church of that place. While laboring here he met and married Maria S. Perkins, daughter of a prominent gentleman of that town, and who bore him a son.
   Career
   He held pastorates in New York, Philadelphia, Providence and Newport, R. I. Upon leaving Catskill he accepted a call to the Tabernacle Baptist Church, of New York. Here he remained for several years, during which time his son was born. From here he removed to Providence, R. I., to become the pastor of the First Baptist Church of that town. During his labors in Providence the degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him by the Trustees of Brown University. From here he removed to New York city, where he labored not only as a pastor, but as a powerful opponent of the Roman Catholic. Having enjoyed a liberal college education in his own country, he became a formidable opponent, and entered the list in public discussion with the renowned Archbishop Hughes, at the same time penning the History of Romanism, which went through multiple editions.
   On leaving New York he removed to Philadelphia, succeeding the celebrated Dr. Stoughton(2) as pastor of the Sansom Street Baptist Church. Here he was as popular as elsewhere, ministering to one of the largest congregations in the city, and maintaining his high position as a leader in the Baptist denomination. He once more returned to New York, where he again officiated in his holy calling, though with less demonstration. As of 1873 he was sixty-five years of age and in the enjoyment of good health. His son by his second wife grew up to become a doctor.

   Citation Text: DOWLING, JOHN WILLIAM, M. D., of New York city, was born in the city of New York, August 11th, 1837, and is the son of the Rev. John Dowling, A. M., D. D., whose life is so replete with public interest that we shall give a short sketch of it previous to our notice of his son. Born in England, he came to this country with his wife and two children in the year 1832. At this time the cholera was raging as an epidemic. Leaving his family in New York to pay a flying visit to Catskill, he returned to find his wife and one of his children dead from this dreadful disease -already in their coffins, prepared for burial. Overwhelmed with grief, he returned with his remaining child to Catskill, where he became the pastor of the Baptist Church of that place. While laboring here he met and married Maria S. Perkins, daughter of a prominent gentleman of that town, and who afterward became the mother of John W.
   
   He has stood for years at the head of the denomination, and is author of the celebrated work entitled "Dowling's History of Romanism." For over forty years he has successfully labored and preached the Gospel, holding pastorates in New York, Philadelphia, Providence and Newport, R. I. Upon leaving Catskill he accepted a call to the Tabernacle Baptist Church, of New York. Here he remained for several years, during which time his son was born. From here he removed to Providence, R. I., to become the pastor of the First Baptist Church of that town. During his labors in Providence the degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him by the Trustees of Brown University. From here he removed to New York city, where he labored not only as a pastor, but as a powerful opponent of Popery. Having enjoyed a liberal college education in his own country, he became a formidable opponent, and entered the list in public discussion with the renowned Archbishop Hughes, at the same time penning the "History of Romanism," which obtained for him the degree of D. D. from two celebrated theological seminaries. This great work has been through four editions, the last of which was revised and carried up to the present time. It is now the most complete history of Romanism extant, and stands as an acknowledged authority. On leaving New York he removed to Philadelphia, succeeding the celebrated Dr. Stoughton as pastor of the Sansom Street Baptist Church. Here he was as popular as elsewhere, ministering to one of the largest congregations in the city, and maintaining his high position as a leader in the Baptist denomination. He once more returned to New York, where he still officiates in his holy calling, though with less demonstration. At this date he is sixty-five years of age and in the enjoyment of good health, using his vast influence for good, as he has never failed to do. His fortune being ample, his family have enjoyed the benefits of a superior education.
   
   The legitimate subject of this sketch received his primary education at Lewisburgh College, Pa., and began his medical studies at the Hahnemann College of Philadelphia in the year 1854, graduating, after three years of study, in 1857. At the time of his graduation he was President of the Hahnemann Medical Society, connected with the College, and had the honor of delivering the valedictory address.
   
   He at once commenced practice, in partnership with Dr. S. S. Lungren, of Hagerstown, Md., where he remained one year ; but finding the field much too circumscribed for his exalted ideas, he returned to his native city, associating himself in practice with the celebrated Dr. Abraham D. Wilson, one of the pioneers of homœopathy in America. On the death of Dr. Wilson he succeeded to his practice, and from that time to the present has enjoyed a very large and lucrative patronage.
   
   In 1870, he accepted the chair of Theory and Practice in the New York Homœopathic Medical College, and in 1871, was elected Registrar, which positions he still retains. In the same year he, being deeply impressed with the fact that surgery had been so neglected in our schools as to bring discredit upon homœopathy, and pained at the boast so often made by the old school physicians that when work was to be done we were obliged to call upon them -conceived the idea of founding a homœopathic surgical hospital in connection with the college. To this end he lent all his energy. A board of incorporators was formed, and application made to the State Legislature for a charter. Of course opposition was met with, and in response to a dispatch that the bill was in danger, he hastened to Albany, and in person appeared before the committee having the matter in charge, and before he left succeeded in obtaining a favorable report. Funds were now needed, to raise which -having failed in his appeals to the State and city authorities- he conceived the idea of a grand homœopathic fair, to be under the management of the ladies of the prominent physicians of the city. Help came from all quarters, resulting in one of the most successful charity fairs ever held in this country, and netting to the institution nearly $40,000 in cash. Probably nothing had ever done more towards elevating the standard of homœopathy in New York. The public had an opportunity of seeing for themselves who the patrons of homœopathy were, and learned, as it had been often claimed, that they were among the most aristocratic and wealthy portion of the community. This hospital is now in active operation, and bids fair to become one of the most useful institutions of the kind in the country.
   
   Dr. Dowling has associated with himself in practice Dr. Homer I. Ostrom, a graduate of the New York College, and a son of Dr. Joshua W. Ostrom, of Goshen, N. Y.
   
   In the fall of 1855, Dr. Dowling was married to Miss Minnie Russel, daughter of the Hon. Joseph Russel, of Warren county, N. Y. After three years of married life she died, leaving one child, who in three months followed her to the grave. After remaining a widower for three years, he married Miss F. A., daughter of L. A. Dowley, Esq., a prominent and wealthy merchant of New York city. By this marriage he has had three children, two sons and one daughter.
   
   The doctor is and has been an indefatigable worker ; possessed of executive talents of the highest order, he has contributed much towards the success of the college, and the elevation and dissemination of homœopathy in New York. He had the honor of delivering the annual address before the State Medical Society at its last meeting. The doctor takes but little rest, but when he does devote a short time to recreation, it is at his country seat at Lake George, where his family spend the greater portion of their summers.

   Citation Text: DOWLING, JOHN WILLIAM, M. D., of New York city, was born in the city of New York, August 11th, 1837, and is the son of the Rev. John Dowling, A. M., D. D., whose life is so replete with public interest that we shall give a short sketch of it previous to our notice of his son. Born in England, he came to this country with his wife and two children in the year 1832. At this time the cholera was raging as an epidemic. Leaving his family in New York to pay a flying visit to Catskill, he returned to find his wife and one of his children dead from this dreadful disease -already in their coffins, prepared for burial. Overwhelmed with grief, he returned with his remaining child to Catskill, where he became the pastor of the Baptist Church of that place. While laboring here he met and married Maria S. Perkins, daughter of a prominent gentleman of that town, and who afterward became the mother of John W.
   
   He has stood for years at the head of the denomination, and is author of the celebrated work entitled "Dowling's History of Romanism." For over forty years he has successfully labored and preached the Gospel, holding pastorates in New York, Philadelphia, Providence and Newport, R. I. Upon leaving Catskill he accepted a call to the Tabernacle Baptist Church, of New York. Here he remained for several years, during which time his son was born. From here he removed to Providence, R. I., to become the pastor of the First Baptist Church of that town. During his labors in Providence the degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him by the Trustees of Brown University. From here he removed to New York city, where he labored not only as a pastor, but as a powerful opponent of Popery. Having enjoyed a liberal college education in his own country, he became a formidable opponent, and entered the list in public discussion with the renowned Archbishop Hughes, at the same time penning the "History of Romanism," which obtained for him the degree of D. D. from two celebrated theological seminaries. This great work has been through four editions, the last of which was revised and carried up to the present time. It is now the most complete history of Romanism extant, and stands as an acknowledged authority. On leaving New York he removed to Philadelphia, succeeding the celebrated Dr. Stoughton as pastor of the Sansom Street Baptist Church. Here he was as popular as elsewhere, ministering to one of the largest congregations in the city, and maintaining his high position as a leader in the Baptist denomination. He once more returned to New York, where he still officiates in his holy calling, though with less demonstration. At this date he is sixty-five years of age and in the enjoyment of good health, using his vast influence for good, as he has never failed to do. His fortune being ample, his family have enjoyed the benefits of a superior education.
   
   The legitimate subject of this sketch received his primary education at Lewisburgh College, Pa., and began his medical studies at the Hahnemann College of Philadelphia in the year 1854, graduating, after three years of study, in 1857. At the time of his graduation he was President of the Hahnemann Medical Society, connected with the College, and had the honor of delivering the valedictory address.
   
   He at once commenced practice, in partnership with Dr. S. S. Lungren, of Hagerstown, Md., where he remained one year ; but finding the field much too circumscribed for his exalted ideas, he returned to his native city, associating himself in practice with the celebrated Dr. Abraham D. Wilson, one of the pioneers of homœopathy in America. On the death of Dr. Wilson he succeeded to his practice, and from that time to the present has enjoyed a very large and lucrative patronage.
   
   In 1870, he accepted the chair of Theory and Practice in the New York Homœopathic Medical College, and in 1871, was elected Registrar, which positions he still retains. In the same year he, being deeply impressed with the fact that surgery had been so neglected in our schools as to bring discredit upon homœopathy, and pained at the boast so often made by the old school physicians that when work was to be done we were obliged to call upon them -conceived the idea of founding a homœopathic surgical hospital in connection with the college. To this end he lent all his energy. A board of incorporators was formed, and application made to the State Legislature for a charter. Of course opposition was met with, and in response to a dispatch that the bill was in danger, he hastened to Albany, and in person appeared before the committee having the matter in charge, and before he left succeeded in obtaining a favorable report. Funds were now needed, to raise which -having failed in his appeals to the State and city authorities- he conceived the idea of a grand homœopathic fair, to be under the management of the ladies of the prominent physicians of the city. Help came from all quarters, resulting in one of the most successful charity fairs ever held in this country, and netting to the institution nearly $40,000 in cash. Probably nothing had ever done more towards elevating the standard of homœopathy in New York. The public had an opportunity of seeing for themselves who the patrons of homœopathy were, and learned, as it had been often claimed, that they were among the most aristocratic and wealthy portion of the community. This hospital is now in active operation, and bids fair to become one of the most useful institutions of the kind in the country.
   
   Dr. Dowling has associated with himself in practice Dr. Homer I. Ostrom, a graduate of the New York College, and a son of Dr. Joshua W. Ostrom, of Goshen, N. Y.
   
   In the fall of 1855, Dr. Dowling was married to Miss Minnie Russel, daughter of the Hon. Joseph Russel, of Warren county, N. Y. After three years of married life she died, leaving one child, who in three months followed her to the grave. After remaining a widower for three years, he married Miss F. A., daughter of L. A. Dowley, Esq., a prominent and wealthy merchant of New York city. By this marriage he has had three children, two sons and one daughter.
   
   The doctor is and has been an indefatigable worker ; possessed of executive talents of the highest order, he has contributed much towards the success of the college, and the elevation and dissemination of homœopathy in New York. He had the honor of delivering the annual address before the State Medical Society at its last meeting. The doctor takes but little rest, but when he does devote a short time to recreation, it is at his country seat at Lake George, where his family spend the greater portion of their summers.

   Citation Text: DOWLING, JOHN WILLIAM, M. D., of New York city, was born in the city of New York, August 11th, 1837, and is the son of the Rev. John Dowling, A. M., D. D., whose life is so replete with public interest that we shall give a short sketch of it previous to our notice of his son. Born in England, he came to this country with his wife and two children in the year 1832. At this time the cholera was raging as an epidemic. Leaving his family in New York to pay a flying visit to Catskill, he returned to find his wife and one of his children dead from this dreadful disease -already in their coffins, prepared for burial. Overwhelmed with grief, he returned with his remaining child to Catskill, where he became the pastor of the Baptist Church of that place. While laboring here he met and married Maria S. Perkins, daughter of a prominent gentleman of that town, and who afterward became the mother of John W.
   
   He has stood for years at the head of the denomination, and is author of the celebrated work entitled "Dowling's History of Romanism." For over forty years he has successfully labored and preached the Gospel, holding pastorates in New York, Philadelphia, Providence and Newport, R. I. Upon leaving Catskill he accepted a call to the Tabernacle Baptist Church, of New York. Here he remained for several years, during which time his son was born. From here he removed to Providence, R. I., to become the pastor of the First Baptist Church of that town. During his labors in Providence the degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him by the Trustees of Brown University. From here he removed to New York city, where he labored not only as a pastor, but as a powerful opponent of Popery. Having enjoyed a liberal college education in his own country, he became a formidable opponent, and entered the list in public discussion with the renowned Archbishop Hughes, at the same time penning the "History of Romanism," which obtained for him the degree of D. D. from two celebrated theological seminaries. This great work has been through four editions, the last of which was revised and carried up to the present time. It is now the most complete history of Romanism extant, and stands as an acknowledged authority. On leaving New York he removed to Philadelphia, succeeding the celebrated Dr. Stoughton as pastor of the Sansom Street Baptist Church. Here he was as popular as elsewhere, ministering to one of the largest congregations in the city, and maintaining his high position as a leader in the Baptist denomination. He once more returned to New York, where he still officiates in his holy calling, though with less demonstration. At this date he is sixty-five years of age and in the enjoyment of good health, using his vast influence for good, as he has never failed to do. His fortune being ample, his family have enjoyed the benefits of a superior education.
   
   The legitimate subject of this sketch received his primary education at Lewisburgh College, Pa., and began his medical studies at the Hahnemann College of Philadelphia in the year 1854, graduating, after three years of study, in 1857. At the time of his graduation he was President of the Hahnemann Medical Society, connected with the College, and had the honor of delivering the valedictory address.
   
   He at once commenced practice, in partnership with Dr. S. S. Lungren, of Hagerstown, Md., where he remained one year ; but finding the field much too circumscribed for his exalted ideas, he returned to his native city, associating himself in practice with the celebrated Dr. Abraham D. Wilson, one of the pioneers of homœopathy in America. On the death of Dr. Wilson he succeeded to his practice, and from that time to the present has enjoyed a very large and lucrative patronage.
   
   In 1870, he accepted the chair of Theory and Practice in the New York Homœopathic Medical College, and in 1871, was elected Registrar, which positions he still retains. In the same year he, being deeply impressed with the fact that surgery had been so neglected in our schools as to bring discredit upon homœopathy, and pained at the boast so often made by the old school physicians that when work was to be done we were obliged to call upon them -conceived the idea of founding a homœopathic surgical hospital in connection with the college. To this end he lent all his energy. A board of incorporators was formed, and application made to the State Legislature for a charter. Of course opposition was met with, and in response to a dispatch that the bill was in danger, he hastened to Albany, and in person appeared before the committee having the matter in charge, and before he left succeeded in obtaining a favorable report. Funds were now needed, to raise which -having failed in his appeals to the State and city authorities- he conceived the idea of a grand homœopathic fair, to be under the management of the ladies of the prominent physicians of the city. Help came from all quarters, resulting in one of the most successful charity fairs ever held in this country, and netting to the institution nearly $40,000 in cash. Probably nothing had ever done more towards elevating the standard of homœopathy in New York. The public had an opportunity of seeing for themselves who the patrons of homœopathy were, and learned, as it had been often claimed, that they were among the most aristocratic and wealthy portion of the community. This hospital is now in active operation, and bids fair to become one of the most useful institutions of the kind in the country.
   
   Dr. Dowling has associated with himself in practice Dr. Homer I. Ostrom, a graduate of the New York College, and a son of Dr. Joshua W. Ostrom, of Goshen, N. Y.
   
   In the fall of 1855, Dr. Dowling was married to Miss Minnie Russel, daughter of the Hon. Joseph Russel, of Warren county, N. Y. After three years of married life she died, leaving one child, who in three months followed her to the grave. After remaining a widower for three years, he married Miss F. A., daughter of L. A. Dowley, Esq., a prominent and wealthy merchant of New York city. By this marriage he has had three children, two sons and one daughter.
   
   The doctor is and has been an indefatigable worker ; possessed of executive talents of the highest order, he has contributed much towards the success of the college, and the elevation and dissemination of homœopathy in New York. He had the honor of delivering the annual address before the State Medical Society at its last meeting.
