Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Elizabeth Marshall (January 28, 1768 – July 26, 1836) was an American entrepreneur who became the second female pharmacist in the United States.[1][2]
Early life
Marshall was born at 56 Chestnut Street (old number) on January 28, 1768.[3]
Family
Marshall was the eldest daughter of Charles Marshall (1744–1825), the proprietor of a pharmacy in Philadelphia and the first president of Philadelphia College of Apothecaries.[4] She had two brothers and seven sisters.[5] Her mother, Patience (Parrish) Marshall, changed her name to "Patience" from "Ann" after her aunt Patience Howell.[5] Patience Marshall died in February 1834.[5] Her grandmother was Sarah Thomson.[5] Her grandfather was Christopher Marshall (d. 1797),[3] an American revolutionary and founder of the family's pharmacy which was named Marshall Drug Store.[4] Her grandfather thought highly of her, as shown in unpublished diary entries preserved in the Historical Society of Pennsylvania.[3]
Career
Marshall worked as an apprentice in the family pharmacy from 1805.[1] She inherited her grandfather's pharmacy, Marshall Drug Store, in 1804[6] and managed the business until 1825.[4] Marshall is regarded by some as being the first female pharmacist in the United States,[4] though Elizabeth Gooking Greenleaf was the first in 1727.[7] Marshall ran the pharmacy for two decades. She was able to bring the shop out of bankruptcy and her efforts resulted in the pharmacy's financial success during that period.[1][2] Marshall retired shortly after the death of her father in 1825 and passed her business on to her apprentices, Charles Ellis and Isaac P. Morris.[5][3][4]
The family's pharmacy is the subject of the painting The Marshall Apothecary by Robert Thom.[6] The painting can be found in the series "Great Moments in Pharmacy."[2]
Death and commemoration
Marshall died on July 26, 1836.[3] She was pictured on the wall of the American Pharmacists Association 2012 Women in Pharmacy Exhibit.[8]
