Doctor Lot Brewster in Woburn 1750-1764, d. 13 Jan 1765, "may be" Lot Brewster, s/o William of Duxbury. "He was possibly an apothecary. He does not appear to be a college graduate. What his first success may have been, his end [elsewhere: "inventory amounts only to £20 14s. 6d."] would seem to show that doctors in his time did not lfourish in such a country place as Woburn then was, and that the profession did not then, outside of urban districts, furnish a very abundant support."
