Agnes Douglas Craine, one of the earliest women graduates of Queen's in medicine, was born in 1862 in Smith's Falls, the daughter of John Joseph Craine and Agnes Muir Craine. She entered the Women's Medical College, associated with Queen's University, in 1884 and received the degrees of M.D and C.M. in 1888. She then went to Europe for post-graduate work, studying in London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna, before establishing her practice at Smith's Falls. Dr. Craine was a direct descendant of the first settlers to land at Chateauguay, Québec, and there are records of Craines in the New Haven colony as early as 1637.

The parents of Solomon Jones (1756-1822) emigrated from Wales to New Jersey around 1750 and later removed to Fort Edward, New York. Solomon attended medical school in Albany and in 1776-77 served as surgeon's mate with Sir John Johnson's corps. After the British surrender at Saratoga, Jones escaped to Canada where he served with the army, chiefly at Three Rivers and Montreal, until 1783. He then settled with his mother, sister and his brothers, Daniel, David, and John in the Township of Augusta, Grenville County. Here he farmed and practiced medicine (as one of the first doctors in Upper Canada). From 1796 to 1800 he sat in the Legislative Assembly as member for Grenville County. In 1800 he was appointed a judge of the Johnstown District Court and later served as Commissioner of Highways and member of the Land Board. Solomon Jones and his descendants were, and remained, influential members of the community: doctors, lawyers, farmers, businessmen.
