Oscar E. Meddaugh was born February 6, 1863 in the county of Oxford near the town of Tilsonburg, Ontario, Canada, . There he received a commonschool education and there he learned the drug business with William McDonald of Tilsonburg. After considerable experience he became a registered pharmacist. During 1886 he married Mary E. Haycock, who was born and reared near Tilsonburg. Accompanied by his wife he came to California and arrived at Lakeport September 22, 1888. Immediately afterward he bought an interest in the drug business of W. A. Maxwell on Main street. At the time of the completion of the Levy block in 1891 the business was moved to the present location, where since 1893 Mr. Meddaugh has been the sole proprietor of an important concern, carrying a stock that, with the fixtures, rep- resents a very large investment. Meanwhile he and his wife have erected a handsome residence in Lakeport and have become prominent in the representative social activities of the town, where their attractive home is known as a center of gracious hospitality. Their eldest son, E. Stuart, is a member of the class of 1914, University of California; the only daughter, I. Jean, is a junior in the same institution; the third child, G. Wallace, is a sophomore in the Lakeport Union high school ; and the youngest son, Oscar E., Jr., is a pupil in the Lakeport grammar school. (Carpenter 1914)
