[The Adelmann family, physicians in Würzburg].
While the lives of all members of the Siebold family of physicians in Würzburg are well described in detail, we have been lacking documentary evidence concerning the Adelmann family, who were doctors in Würzburg. Their progenitor was Dominikus Adelmann (1743-1821) who had moved from Vechta to this city. He eventually worked as city surgeon and police physician. Three of his sons became doctors, and one was a natural scientist. Five of his grandchildren also became doctors, and girls of the third and fourth generation contracted marriage with medical people. In the sixth generation we still find doctors who continue the family tradition.
