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.
