History

19th century

In 1832 an Act of Parliament named a commission to "superintend and manage the erection and completion of a hospital in or near the town of Kingston". In 1835 the first building was completed on the site where KGH stands today, on land purchased from Archdeacon George O'Kill Stuart. The building, designed to accommodate 120 patients, remained unoccupied until three years later when the city had the money to buy equipment and furnishings. In 1838 the hospital cared for its first patients, twenty wounded Americans taken prisoner in the Battle of the Windmill during the Rebellion of 1837.
