Early Veterinary students

Although our registers of students who attended the Edinburgh / Royal Dick Veterinary College only begin in the 1860s, the college itself was established in 1823.  Although, unlike the University, there is no easily-identifiable published list of early students, one does in fact exist.  Included in William Dick's 'Occasional Papers' (published 1869) is a list of all the graduates. 

The list gives their name, year of graduation and place of residence.  Cornell University have a digitised copy of the entire publication at http://archive.org/details/cu31924000347975
