Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James Steuart (physician)
A Google book search shows that James Steuart was a prominent physician in Maryland. He promoted vaccination. In 1822 he reestablished a society for promoting vaccination http://books.google.com/books?id=6tF4AAAAMAAJ&pg=PA734&dq=%22james+steuart%22+physician&lr=&as_brr=0&ei=XKWmSqfgOpTkMPWl4IoK#v=onepage&q=%22james%20steuart%22%20physician&f=false History of Baltimore City and County (1881) page 734. He was on a 5 man commission to set up a college of physicians in 1803 (p 735). Smallpox deaths in the area declined from 26 in Feb (when he established the vaccination operation) to 3 in April (perhaps "original research " to give him credit.) http://books.google.com/books?id=xNcRAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA26&dq=%22james+steuart%22+physician&lr=&as_brr=0&ei=MqmmStyyEJOCNt_J3JUK#v=onepage&q=&f=false Medical Annals of Baltimore, (1884) p26. He was apparently quoted by Washington Irving regarding customs in Annapolis in his youth http://books.google.com/books?id=l_oMAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA227&dq=%22james+steuart%22+physician&lr=&as_brr=0&ei=-aemSpnKIJjGM8617aAK#v=onepage&q=%22james%20steuart%22%20physician&f=false "Side-lights on Maryland history" (1913) (p227). He "rendered valuable service" in the War of 1812 (p228). He is said to have been an associate of Washington, and was an Edinburgh educated doctor, not that common in pre-revolutionary America. This one is borderline. There may be print sources not available on line, and if someone dug them out and referenced it perhaps an article could be recreated. Not quite seeing that  is satisfied at this point
