Contents
Life before San Diego
Remondino was born in 1846 in Turin (Torino) Piedmont, (Piemonte in Italian), which is now a region of Italy.[1] Remondino migrated to America with his father at the age of eight.[1] The family moved to Minnesota where he grew up.[1]
Remondino spoke several languages, including French, German, Latin, and Sioux.[1]
Neither Peter nor Charles are Italian names so he apparently anglicized his names at some point.
Remondino entered Jefferson Medical School at Philadelphia in 1863.[1] After medical school he served the United States Army as a medical doctor during the Civil War. He had some illness that he contracted from the bite of a mosquito.
After he returned to Minnesota, he continued to have health issues. He moved to San Diego where he believed the climate would be beneficial to his health in 1873, where he seems to have recovered his health. He practiced medicine and surgery there,[1]
Life in San Diego
Remondino married Sophia Ann Earle on Sept. 27, 1877 in San Diego, California. They had four children.[1]
Remondino's History of Circumcision
Remondino published a curious book in 1896 entitled HISTORY OF CIRCUMCISION FROM THE EARLIEST TIMES TO THE PRESENT: Moral and Physical Reasons for its Performance, with a HISTORY OF EUNUCHISM, HERMAPHRODISM, ETC., AND OF THE DIFFERENT OPERATIONS PRACTICED UPON THE PREPUCE.[2]
