Historie

Mary Edwards Walker, the daughter of a New York farmer who became a doctor during the Civil War, is the only woman to have received a Medal of Honor. Her story includes many ties to Ohio, including her first attempt to begin a medical practice in Columbus, and how Col. Daniel McCook of Ohio's famous "Fighting McCooks" became the first officer willing to pay her for her services after hiring her to tend to his Ohio Infantry casualties.
