    Article, Lancaster News (undated clipping):

    Dr. J. H. FOSTER

    "Between the years 1865-85, one of the best known men in the county
    and village of Lancaster was Dr. Joe. An old-time family doctor,
    physician, nurse, and friend, he was loved by one and all as he traveled
    over the rutted dirt roads in his horse and buggy to the homes of the
    sick.
    Dr. Joseph Henry Foster was born April 20, 1835 at his father's
    plantation home on the Catawba River in the Waxhaws section of Lancaster
    County. He was the youngest child of John and Ann Kelsey Cantzon Foster,
    and a grandson of Captain John Foster and his wife Ann Dunlop. The Foster
    home had been built close to the river, sometime around 1752 when the
    family came down from Pennsylvania, on the plantation now belonging to
    the children of Anna Foster Moore. But, due to the prevalence of malaria
    which had caused the deaths of a number of the older brothers and sisters
    of Dr. Joe, a new home had been erected higher up on the old plantation.
    This home site is on the Lancaster-Riverside highway where C.C. Hanson
    now lives. The house was burned before 1900.
    Dr. Joe and his brother, Captain John Cantzon Foster received their
    first education in a neighborhood school, then were sent by their father
    to Mt Zion Institute in Winnsboro to prepare for entrance into the
    University of South Carolina. From the University both were graduated in
    1855. Joseph Henry then studied medicine in Charleston and in 1860
    finished at the New Orleans School of Medicine.
    Early in the spring of 1861, Dr. Foster volunteered with the Lancaster
    Greys of the Confederate Army, and was with them on the S.C. coast and
    later in Virginia. He was promoted to the full rank of Surgeon by order
    of the Secretary of War of the Confederacy in 1862 and served with the
    5th S.C. Volunteers, under the command of General Coward, until the end
    of the war. An obituary of him at the time of his death says "Dr. Foster
    had but few equals in the Confederate service as a successful surgeon and
    physician, and it not infrequently happened that he was detailed to do
    brigade and division duty."
    At the close of the war, Dr. Foster returned to his father's Waxhaw
    home, which he inherited upon his father's death in 1867. In 1869, he was
    married to Charlotte Brown, daughter of Daniel Washington and Elizabeth
    Amanda Barnes Brown. In 1876, the couple moved down to the village of
    Lancaster. Their home was on the corner of Dunlap and Catawba Streets,
    later sold to Dr. G. F. Poovey, and now belonging to the county, the site
    of the Public Welfare Building.
    In addition to practicing medecine, Dr. Foster was interested in
    agriculture in every form. He planted his farm in the Waxhaws and raised
    cattle on land he had bought on Gills Creek, a good part of what is now
    North Main. He grew fruit trees and always had a beautiful flower garden."
    Dr. and Mrs. Foster had ten children, all but three growing to
    adulthood. Three of his sons followed their father's profession, the
    fourth was a Lancaster attorney.
    Dr. Foster died May 23, 1885. Buried in the same plot of the old
    Presbyterian Cemetery with him and his wife are three young children and
    a son, Dr. Carl Foster, and the latter's wife. Dr. Carl Foster practiced
    medicine many years in Columbia, S.C.. Also buried beside their parents
    are two daughters well-remembered by many Lancastrians, Misses Eloise and
    Gertrude Foster, who were beloved teachers in the Lancaster Public school
    for many years. Two children are still living, Dr. Ralph Kelsey Foster
    and Miss Caroline Foster, both of Columbia, S.C."Attended Medical College
    of S.C. 1858-1859. His Preceptor was R.E. Wylie.
    Joe Foster was a physician in Lancaster County, and served as a Medical
    Officer during the Civil War. He rose from Private to Surgeon of
    Jenkins' Brigade, and was functioning as Division Surgeon at the
