• Notes

  from "The Canadaigua Repository and Messenger", Jun 1874 (fultonhistory.com) Marvin C. Palmer, of Gansevoort, who, some five months since swallowed four false teeth attached to a plate, has from time to time visited several eminent physicians, but the general opinion prevailed among them that there would be no certainty of his surviving the ordeal of an operation for the removal of the teeth. Mr Palmer on Wednesday called upon Dr. McLean, who, after an examination, gave it as his candidate opinion that the operation could be successfully performed. Mr Palmer has about concluded to allow Dr. McLean to attempt the removal of the teeth. His health is gradually failing by reason of the presence of the foreign substance within him. In his present condition he is compelled to take his food in a fluid state, and in such limited quantities that it does not afford him the nourishment desired. It will be remembered the doctor McLean performed a similar operation on a West Troy gentleman, who was entirely successful, the second successful operation of the kind ever performed in this country. from "The Albany Evening Journal", 6 Apr 1896 Marvin C. Palmer, a highly respected citizen of Glens Falls, died on Saturday. He was in his 51st year. Deceased was born in the town of Moreau. and came to Glens Falls about 30 years ago, at first conducting a meat market, and later managing the Glen Falls Creamery. For the last few years his time has been given to the care of his farms - one on the ridge, and one in Moreau. He is survived by his wife, a daughter - Miss Daisy E. Palmer, and a sister, Mrs. Thomas B. Cooledge of this village.
