Miss Davison was a medical artist at the Manchester Royal Infirmary (MRI) and the University of Manchester from around 1918 until her retirement in 1957. During her long career she illustrated books and scientific papers on anthropology, anatomy and surgery, however, it’s her work for neurosurgeon Geoffrey Jefferson during the 1930s–1950s that she is best remembered.

John Hatton, LSA MRCS FRCS MD (1817–1871), was apprenticed from 1833 to Joseph Jordan, MRCS FRCS (1787–1873), a well-known Manchester surgeon. Jordan, who had been teaching anatomy since 1814, closed his Mount Street Medical School in 1834 and was elected as surgeon to the Manchester Royal Infirmary in 1835. He continued to lecture on surgery and surgical pathology at the Infirmary, and sometimes at the Pine Street Medical School run by Thomas Turner, LSA FRCS (1793–1873). During 1837–38 Hatton transcribed and illustrated these lectures in a bound manuscript and also added notes and drawings in his personal copy of The Dublin Dissector. He gained his Licentiate of the Society of Apothecaries (LSA) in 1836 and Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons (MRCS) in 1839 and set up in Manchester as surgeon from around 1840. This paper is based on three previously unrelated documents in the University of Manchester Archives: a handwritten catalogue of specimens in Jordan’s Anatomy Museum, Hatton’s annotated copy of The Dublin Dissector and his manuscript record of Jordan’s lectures. These documents provide a valuable insight into medical education during the 1830s.
