The following is from a book printed in 1930 entitled Texas Medicine Man:

"The name of Dr. Julian T. Field follows closely that of Dr. Peak in the history of the doctors of Fort Worth.

Dr. Field's telephone number was No. 1.

Born on his father's plantation in Caddo Parish, Louisiana 1847, the doctor claimed he was a Texan, for while the house in which he was born was in Louisiana, very shortly after his birth the family moved to a new house on the Texas portion of the plantation.

Dr. Field was the son of Captain Julian Field and Henrietta Boisseau Field. Although born a farmer's boy, he never followed a plow or worked on the farm in any capacity. He came to Fort Worth at the age of eight years, a bright, quick, mischievous boy. He went to school to Colonel J. P. Smith in the old hospital of the fort, a box shanty which the soldiers had vacated. He soon became a leader in serenades and general frolics among the young people. The town was just an outpost of civilization. Indians, buffalo, deer, and panther were all close neighbors, but the boys and girls managed to have a good time and get an education of sorts.

Dr. Field's next school after the shanty was the Institute at Clarksville, where his teacher was the celebrated Dr. McKenzie. In 1863, at the age of seventeen, entering the Confederate service, he was elected Lieutenant of Company C., 15th Texas Cavalry. He served throughout the war.

In 1865 he began the study of medicine under Dr. C. M. Peak. In 1867 he entered the University of Louisville, Kentucky, and taking two full courses was graduated March 1869. He was then only twenty-two years old. He went to Mansfield, where he did a very laborious and extensive country practice from 1869 to 1872. Ambitious to stand at the head of his profession, he went to Bellevue Hospital New York, where he remained a year. In 1873 he returned to his boyhood home, Fort Worth. He built his own office on Weatherford Street and started practice among friends who had known and loved him as a child. They appreciated the effort he had made to prepare himself in the best schools and they gave him their fullest support and confidence.

In 1873 Dr. Field became first president of the Medical Examining Board of the district and acted as such until a new board was appointed under a new law. He was appointed in 1878, United States Examining Surgeon for Pensions. He was a charter member of the Tarrant County Medical Association and was received as a member of the State Association in 1874.

In January, 1878, he performed a triple amputation of an arm at the shoulder joint and the legs below the knees, from which the patient made a good recovery. This was a very unusual case and created most favorable comment. As a recognition of his skill, Dr. Field was made a vice-president of the State Association in 1878.

In 1869 Dr. Field married Miss Sarah M. Furguson. Four daughters were born to them.

Dr. Field was a Mason and a Knight of Pythias. He attended, with his wife, the Cumberland Presbyterian Church.

Dr. Field was one of the first doctors to recognize the value of the artesian water near Fort Worth and very strongly advised its use as a preventive of typhoid fever."
