Hi there! Nice list. :)

Did you ever find the addresses for those last few? I am having trouble myself.

Oops. Looks like I may have spoken too soon on one of them. After extensive Googling, I have come up with this gem:

East, Savannah, Ga. b. Washington, D. C, July 20, 1855. Cor-
nell '72-'75; B. S. '75; Hahnemann Med. Coll. of Penn., M. D.,
'77; Southern Med. Coll., Atlanta, Ga., M. D., '94. Vet. ColL
prize; gold medalist of Hahnemann Med. Coll. of Penn. '77.
Member staff of Savannah Hospital.; lecturer on Anatomy in
Training School for Nurses. Member Ass'n Amer, Anatomists;
Amer. Electro-Therap. Ass'n.; Med. Ass'n Georgia; Georgia

What is interesting ab out this man is what this book has to say (I had to shorten the long thing; it's from a Google Book Result):

Hello,
My wife and I are driving up to Savannah for vacation tommorrow. I'm doing research on Dr. Eugene Corson and his friend Dr. Richard Joseph Nunn. They were some characters it seems...Has anyone been to their former homes, or know of any legends about them?
