History

Founding

Captain John Bertram (Massachusetts businessman) (1796–1882) lived in Salem, Massachusetts and is the founder of Salem Hospital. In 1873, Captain John Bertram gave a gift of $25,000 in cash, plus a brick mansion on Charter Street to create Salem Hospital. From the original building on Charter Street, Salem Hospital moved to the current location on Highland Avenue in 1917. After John Bertram died in March 1882, his widow donated their home, John Bertram Mansion, a mansion built in the High Style Italianate with brick and brownstone for materials, built at 370 Essex Street [8] and this became the Salem Public Library.[9] In addition, John Bertram House is now a home for the elderly.[10]
