Subject: [MUSEUM-L] historical medical dictionary/reference?

Does anyone know of a good source of translation for 18th and 19th
century
references to medical problems and treatments? We are cataloguing a
large
collection of family manuscripts and are looking for a way to better
describe things like "blister plasters," "chilblains," "dyspepsia," and
various "nervous conditions"... web resources would be great!

Thanks!
