Administrative history
Daniel Byer founded D. Byer & Co'y in Markham, Ontario in 1895. Prior to this, his father, David, had been performing cancer cures for a number of years from his home. Byers' Cancer Cure was patented October 7th, 1895 (#50,198). The cure appears to have been a combination of surgical removal and a plater/ointment treatment. His daughter, Christiana opened and ran the Byer Cancer Hospital until 1922.
