Here's an 1895 cite:

https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Cincinnati_Lancet_and_Clinic/8hwTAAAAYAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=pedophiles&pg=PA349&printsec=frontcover

<< In fact, despite all the rigours of the law, Athens acquired almost 
as much celebrity from its pederasts and pedophiles as Corinth from its 
tribades or unnatural women.  >>

The Cincinatti Lancet-Clinic
Jul-Dec 1895
p349
