Thomas "Doc" Martin

Thomas Paul "Doc" Martin (October 30, 1864 – 1935) was an American physician. He was one of the first American residents of Taos County, New Mexico[1] and the first practicing physician in Taos.[2]

Early life and education

Thomas Paul Martin was born in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania on October 30, 1864. His parents, Joab and Louie O. (Hostetter) Martin, were Pennsylvania natives. His father was a grain merchant.[1]

Martin attended the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Baltimore, Maryland, earning his M.D. in 1887. He interned at Baltimore City Hospital and Mercy Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[1]

Taos, New Mexico

Martin moved to Taos, New Mexico in January, 1890, where he opened a medical office and practiced medicine and surgery throughout Taos County. He was an early member of the New Mexico Medical Society.[1] He was physician for the local Pueblos[3] and also for the Penitentes.[4] He served eight years on the Territorial Board of Health and was a United States examining physician.[3]

Doc Martin was a major figure in the development of Taos. Blanche Grant wrote of him a year before his death, "(He) Has been prominent in all important matters pertaining to Taos ever since (he arrived in 1889)."[5] He was a Freemason and one of the first Shriners in New Mexico. He served as deputy for all Masonic bodies in northern New Mexico.[3] He was also a member of both the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. He served as vice-president of the New Mexico chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution.[1]

Martin's sister Rose married Taos artist Bert Geer Phillips in 1899.[6] The initial 1915 meeting of the Taos Society of Artists was held at Doc Martin's home.[7] After Martin's death in 1935, his widow Helen converted the house into Hotel Martin, which opened on June 7, 1936.[8]

Hotel Martin was renamed by subsequent owners, becoming the Taos Inn. The inn's restaurant, named Doc Martin's, is located in Martin's former offices.[9] The inn was added to the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties in 1981[10] and to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[11]
