Graduates, 1836-1968

The most common research question the Medical Heritage Center (MHC) receives is from family members looking for confirmation of when their ancestor graduated from medical school.

The MHC has catalogs from the following medical schools that were used to compile the data for this searchable PDF. In certain cases people do appear as a student at some point but were never listed as a graduate. These individuals were included in the database with no graduation date listed.

  • Willoughby University of Lake Erie (1836-1846)
  • Willoughby Medical College of Columbus (1847)
  • Starling Medical College (1847-1907)
  • Columbus Medical College (1876-1892)
  • Ohio Medical University (1892-1907)
  • Starling-Ohio Medical College (1907-1914)
  • The Ohio State University College of Medicine (1914 – 1968)

Additionally, in many cases the MHC has a photograph of the graduating class. If you locate your ancestor, please contact us to see if we have a photograph.
