Andreas' History of the State of Nebraska:
Dr. J. P. Andrews, now a resident of Blair, was the first physician to take up his residence here, and the first physician to settle in the county. He is now 78 years old, but of a very much more youthful appearance.
FORT CALHOUN IN THE LATER FIFTIES by MRS. E. H. CLARK:
My father, Dr. J. P. Andrews, came in the spring of 1857 and was a practicing physician, also a minister for many years here. He was the first Sunday school superintendent here and held that office continually until 1880 when he moved to Blair.
