John Grosvenor

John Grosvenor (1742 - June 30, 1823) was an English surgeon, born at Oxford, the son of Stephen Grosvenor, sub-treasurer of Christ Church. He received medical education at Worcester and the London hospitals, and later became anatomical surgeon on Dr. Lee's foundation at Christ Church. Grosvenor was long the most noted practical surgeon in Oxford, especially for his treatment of stiff and diseased joints by friction. He was admitted to the privileges of the university on February 24, 1768. In 1795, on the death of William Jackson, the university printer, he became chief proprietor and editor of the 'Oxford Journal'.
