- Enoch_Edwards_(surgeon) abstract "Enoch Edwards (1751 – April 18, 1802, Frankford, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) was an American physician and a leading Patriot during the American Revolution. Born in Lower Dublin Township, Pennsylvania, Edwards was a member of the Provincial Congress in Carpenters' Hall on June 18, 1776, which led to the Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776. He was also a signatory of the 1790 Pennsylvania Constitution. During the war he served as attending physician for George Washington, was a close friend of both Benjamin Rush and Thomas Jefferson, and kept up correspondence with James Monroe and John Quincy Adams.On October 26, 1779, Edwards married Frances Gordon (half-sister of Henry Benbridge) at Christ Church, Philadelphia.The Edwards family were prominent during the American Revolution."Dr. Enoch Edwards was associated with James Monroe when the latter was minister to France, and was also on the staff of Lord Sterling.A brother, Major Evan Edwards, was on the staff of General Charles Lee, and was General Lee's second in his celebrated duel with Laurens, in which Alexander Hamilton was the second on the other side.It is said that Jefferson made his first draft of the Declaration of Independence in the summer house located in the garden of Dr. Edwards, in Frankford.The mansion on these grounds, which was only recently torn down, was in its day the resort of the most eminent men of the time, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Monroe, and many others foremost in the history of our country.Aaron Burr, who was a cousin of Dr. Edwards, and of Dr. Britton's great-grandmother, was also a frequent visitor."As a living eyewitness to Jefferson's return to Frankford, Fanny Saltar makes the following entry while writing her memoirs:After my uncle's return, he purchased a place in Frankfordof Mr. Drinker. The house was pleasantly situated atsome distance from the street, but the beauty of theplace consisted in the lovely view presented from thesummer-house, of the pastures, streams, bridges, mills,the village, numberless roads winding through talltrees, luxuriant shade, and rising above all other objects,was seen Christ Church steeple, five miles distant.One day when Mr. Jefferson was on a visit to my uncle,they walked up to this summer-house. He looked roundand said: This is the spot on which the signers of the Declaration of Independence dined the day they signed the Declaration.".
