Edward Lawrence Keyes (August 28, 1843 – January 24, 1924) was a leading American urologist of the late 19th century[1] and the first president of the American Association of Genitourinary Surgeons at its founding in 1888.[2]
Life
[edit | edit source]Keyes, a son of General Erasmus D. Keyes, was born August 28, 1843, at Fort Moultrie Army Base in Charleston, South Carolina.[3] He studied at Yale College, 1859–1863, graduating with a master's degree, and briefly served as his father's aide-de-camp as a captain in the United States Army.[4] After graduating from Medical College of the New York University, he entered into practice with one of his teachers, William Holme Van Buren. In 1870 he himself began lecturing on dermatology and genitourinary surgery at Bellevue Hospital Medical College.[3]
Family
[edit | edit source]Keyes married Sarah Loughborough on April 26, 1870.[3] From 1881 to 1907 they lived at 930 Fifth Avenue, which they had decorated by John F. Douthitt and where Sarah hosted a salon.[citation needed]
Their son, Edward Loughborough Keyes, was like his father a noted urologist.[citation needed]
Edward Lawrence Keyes died from pneumonia at his home in New York on January 24, 1924.[5] He was buried at Gate of Heaven Cemetery.[4]
