Dr. Joel Wyman Launched Dynasty That Made S. C. Medical History
Dr. Joel Wyman, progenitor of twenty-six physicians and several pharmacists to date, is definitely entitled to a distinctive category in the annals of American medical history.
Unheralded was the coming of the late Joel Wyman from the State of Massachusetts to South Carolina in 1825, where he was destined to blaze a trail for generations to follow in his wake.
Also unsung was this physician's career, which ended after a comparatively brief span. However, the example and precept which he so indelibly impressed upon his descendants resulted in a monumental chain to his memory. Upon graduation from Amherst College, in Massachusetts, in 1825, Joel Wyman cast his eyes southward and came to Old Barnwell County where he spent his first years as "Preceptor of the Boiling Springs Academy.
Living in the home of a "weathy, genteel family by name of Lewis Scott Hay," frequent references were made in correspondence with his family in the North, to Mr. Hays's enormous farm operations, his vast cotton acreage, and the income from that crop alone.
In referring to his profession as instructor, Mr. Wyman said, "My students treat me with all respect due an instructor and manifest that attachment which gives teaching its only charm." From his annual salary of $1000 only one tenth of it paid his board in this typically Southern home of a family traditionally "to the manner born."
At the end of his first year this young man decided that his experience in this capacity would be only a stepping stone to a more remunerative life's work. Consequently, he left Boiling Springs for Charleston, leaving behind fondest memories of his sojourn and particularly of one Miss Clementine Hay.
Entering the Medical College in Charleston, out-standing student, Joel Wyman had entrenched upon the professional training which was destined to render him, personally, and ultimately, of great service to mankind, and to establish a record which in turn, was emulated by descendants.
As an honor graduate of the Medical College in 1831, Dr. Wyman received a handsome silver urn bearing the engraved inscription: "To J. W. Wyman by the Medical College of South Carolina for the best thesis written in Latin, the 15th Kalendar Day of April, 1831." Needless to say the urn is a cherished possession of succeeding generations of the family.
Thus fortified with an instrument for making a living and rendering service, Dr. Wyman retraced his steps to the Boiling Springs Section and claimed the hand of lovely Clementine Hay, in marriage. They settled in Prince Williams Parish, Beaufort District, where the young physician soon enjoyed an extensive clientele, gaining the admiration, esteem and confidence of the entire section.
This Wyman-Hay union was blessed with a large family of three daughters and six sons. Four of the latter also became physicians.
The four upholding their father's tradition were: William, Benjamin, Hastings, and Frampton Wyman. William graduated from the Medical College in Charleston in 1858. Benjamin graduated there, also, in 1869, after having served in the Confederate Army as Captain of Company F, 11th South Carolina Regiment, Hagood's Brigade. In 1875 Hastings graduated from the Charleston Medical College and was followed by Frampton who received his diploma in 1881, later practicing in Aiken and also in Hampton County.
Deserving were these men who despite the vicissitudes of the era, war, and post-war periods, were not deterred in their determination to prepare for the practice of medicine.
Regardless of the menial tasks of plantation life to which they were subjected during their days, and to which they were unaccustomed, they set their hands to the tasks devolving upon them. At the same time grasping every opportunity for study and selfimprovement.
Amusing stories are related of the concealment of books about the boy's persons, furtive study occurring between rows in ploughing, on long hauls to the Savannah River for freight; or during rest periods in the shade of trees at noon, etc. So intent upon their purposes were they as to frequently pass each other without realization of having done so.
In turn these four sons of Dr. Joel Wyman also became progenitors of others following the family tradition. Nine grandsons, ten great grandsons, and three great-great grandsons followed medical careers and have been active in the professional field.
One currently following in the same field and representing the eleventh generation from the original Francis Wyman of Massachusetts is Wesley Lawton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Lawton of Lena, S. C. Mrs. Lawton having been Miss Virginia Wyman of Aiken, S. C.
Wesley is a student at Presbyterian College, Clinton, where he is taking a pre-medical course with the ultimate aim of continuing his education at the alma mater of the forebears.
Francis Wyman and John Wyman, founders of the Wyman Family in America, came here from England in the late 1630's, the former having been baptised in that country in May, 1617.
The active Wyman Family Association issues an annual call to the famliy "to assemble at the 1666 Francis Wyman House in Burlington, Mass. to join the clan who carry the Wyman acquaintance through a linear heritage of men dedicated to the service of humanity and to country."
Innate sense of loyalty and devotion to country prevails among this Wyman Clan as was demonstrated by Harry Hastings Wyman and his twin brother, Frampton Hay Wyman, who ran away from the Aiken Military Academy during the War Between the States, to join their brother in the Confederate Army in 1861.
Hay was mortally wounded around Petersburg, Va. in 1863. Harry served to the end of the conflict, his prideful boast being that he -never surrendered nor took an oath of allegiance against the Confederate States of America. Among this long line of Wyman descendants, culture, patriotism and exemplary citizenship have been ear marks of distinction.
According to records 181 members of the original Wyman family in America were active in the American Revolution. Many served in the War Between the States and also in each and every succeeding conflict.
Thus, the Wyman name is synonymous with service to mankind, and to country. The clarion call of the old patriarch Francis Wyman to descendants to "assemble for the purpose of acquaintance through a linear heritage of men dedicated to service of our country or humanity," cannot be realized in full attendance each year. However, the call resounds with succeeding generations who continue loyal to their heritage.
Dr. Joel Wyman's sight became impaired from cataracts in 1865 and while he discontinued active practice, he proved invaluable to the profession in an advisatory capacity. He died at the home of his. son Dr. Hastings Wyman, in Brunson, in 1883.
Among the Joel Wyman descendants who have followed him in the medical profession, or who are currently active are: Marion Wyman,. Joel Wyman, Dudley Jones, Parker Jones, Ben Wyman, Dibble Wyman, Frampton Wyman, Hugh Vincent, Harry Wyman, Ben Wyman, Holbrook Wyman, and C. P. Vincent III and others.
Thus, the name of Joel Wyman, preceptor of twenty-six physicians, is perpetuated through a linear heritage of men "dedicated to the services of humanity and country."
