    Notes:

    Dr. Thomas Blanch Bloomfield was born in New York City, November 17, 1846. He was the son of Judge William Bloomfield and Catherine Van Mater Croes-Bloomfield. Paternally, he was related to former New Jersey Governor Joseph Bloomfield; maternally, he was a direct descendant of the early Dutch settlers.
    In his younger days, Dr. Bloomfield attended NYC schools, and at the age of seventeen he entered Rutgers College in New Brunswick, N. J. He received the degree of Doctor of Medicine from the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York City. He held many professional positions, including those at the General Hospital for the Insane at Middletown, Conn., and the Epileptic Hospital on Blackwell?s Island, New York.
    On July 16, 1876, he married Miss Nellie B. Luther of East Haddam. Following the wedding Dr. Bloomfield and his wife moved to Saybrook for two years and then to Westbrook where he remained until his death on February 17, 1905.
    Dr. Bloomfield was a physician who was in love with his profession; he was well-respected and well-loved by his patients. He strove to heal the sick and comfort the sorrowing, often under the most trying circumstances. He never refused a professional call, and went as cheerfully to the penniless as to the rich. Many of his patients would proclaim: ?Dr. Bloomfield was so kind to us when we were in trouble.?
    He was considered an exceptionally clever diagnostician and his medical skill will long remain a by-word in Westbrook and its vicinity. Dr. Bloomfield was frank and out-spoken, and had many critics but none could cast any slurs on his professional ability.
    At the time of his death, Dr. Bloomfield was the Health Officer and Medical Examiner for his town and Examining Physician for all the leading Life Insurance Companies doing business in the section covered by his practice.
    He was a member of the Episcopal Church and it was largely through his efforts that the present church edifice in Westbrook was built.
    Dr. Bloomfield was survived by his widow and seven children: Catherine Van Mater Croes, of New York City, James Brownlee of Ivoryton, Conn., William, of St. Louis, Mo., Thomas Blanch, Jessie, Eva and Luther, who were living at home with their mother. He was predeceased by his daughter Grace.
    Dr. Bloomfield was interred in Cypress Cemetery, Westbrook. Connecticut, USA.
