Robert Bayard (1788 – 4 June 1868) was a doctor and writer from New Brunswick, Canada. His son, William Bayard, also became a medical doctor and practiced in Saint John, New Brunswick with his father. Robert Bayard was from a prominent New York family before the American War of Independence. After the war, his father settled at Wilmot, Nova Scotia. He studied medicine and became a doctor and professor of obstetrics at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in the University of the State of New York. The War of 1812 caused him to return to Canada. A prominent member of the province's medical profession at the time, Bayard wrote: * ''Exposition of facts relative to a case of croup'' (1826) * ''Evidences of the delusions of homoeopathy'' (1857) both published in Saint John, New Brunswick. He also denounced Tractarian influences in the Church of England in ''A statement of facts, as they occurred at the late annual meeting of the Diocesan Church Society'' published in 1849. Bayard helped establish the route of the European and North American Railway between Saint John and Shediac. He died on his farm near Welsford. The nearby train station was known for some years as Bayard. == References == * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Bayard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
