William A. Benadom Papers
Scope and Contents
William A. Benadom practiced medicine in Davenport, IA, operating several sanitariums. This file is from Ft. Leavenworth Penitentiary where he was sentenced to one year for falsely claiming to be a licensed physician and purchasing/distributing drugs.
Images in the Hostetler photograph collection posted on UMVDIA prompted the patron to contact us. He generously shared the documentation obtained from the National Archives. Substantial research done by KMO previously regarding the Hostetler images was continued with this resulting in a timeline of Benadom's life which is included in the folder with email correspondence.
