Sarah A. Colby

Sarah A. Colby (May 31, 1824 – April 18, 1904) was an American physician. The first ten years were given to family practice, and the remaining ones to office practice, except in cases of special favor. Of these, only Sarah and Esther survived.

Colby was educated in the public schools of her native town and the Woodman Sanbornton Academy in Sanbornton Square. Taylor graduated from the Homœopathic Medical College of Chicago in 1872. In 1875, she became a member of the American Institute of Homœopathy and the Homœopathic State Medical Society of Illinois. She had a large and successful practice in Freeport, Illinois.
