Clement Archer (December 21, 1748-1803) was a surgeon and president of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI). Clement Archer was born in County Wexford on December 21, 1748. He was educated as a surgeon, and on February 4, 1772, was examined by the County Infirmaries' Board, and "passed" for the Longford Infirmary. He settled in Dublin in 1774 and was an original member of the Surgeons' Society. In 1785, he, together with surgeons Bolger, Lindsay, Costelloe, Hartigan, and Graydon, and Drs.

Foundling Hospital, Dublin
The Foundling Hospital ( ga, Ospidéal Foundling) was a hospital for abandoned children in Dublin, Ireland which was established as part of the South Dublin Union.

Two primary objectives of the hospital were to avoid deaths and murders of illegitimate children and to teach the Protestant faith to these children. No inquiry was made about the parents, and no money received. A cradle was installed by 1730. Between 1,500 and 2,000 children were received annually. A large income was derived from a duty on coal. In 1822 an admission fee of £5 was charged on the parish from which the child came. This reduced the annual arrivals to about 500. Child deaths during transport to the hospital or whilst staying in the hospital were not infrequent and would often become the subject of an inquiry. The number of Prote ...
