From the Biographical Souvenir of the States of Georgia and Florida:
Dr. Joseph Anthony was a native of Elbert County, Georgia, and was born in 1805. His early medical education was obtained at the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania, but he received his diploma on graduating from the Transylvania Univerisity at Lexington, Kentucky. He was regarded as one of the most able and most successful physicians of the state, and no man stood higher professionally, socially, or religiously than he. For many years before his death in 1875 at the age of 70, he had been a deacon in the Baptist Church and liberal contributor to the Baptist and other religious journals. His articles were highly appreciated and admired.
