General Notes: Husband - Dr. Horace S. McClymonds


He was reared on his father's farm, received his primary education in the common schools, afterwards attended the State Normal at Edinboro, and taught for several terms. He studied medicine with Dr. A. G. Thomas, of Freeport, attended lectures at Miami Medical College, Cincinnati, Ohio, one term, and graduated at the Medical Department of the New York University, in March, 1883. He at once opened an office at Brownsdale, Butler County, Pennsylvania, where he continued to enjoy a good practice until 1892, when he removed to Renfrew and purchased the drug store of J. M. Calvert, which he carried on in connection with his professional duties. He was a member of Butler County Medical Association, also of the State Med-ical Society.

He was reared on the family homestead, receiving his elementary education in the common schools of his township, and later attending the State Normal School at Edinboro. After teaching three years he took up the study of medicine, first with his brother, Dr. S. Erskine McClymonds, and afterward with Dr. A. G. Thomas, of Freeport. Later he entered Miami Medical College, Cincinnati, Ohio, and thence went to New York, where he studied for two years in the medical department of the New York University, graduating in March, 1883, with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. The same year he entered upon the practice of his profession at Browndale, Pennsylvania, and at Renfrew, an adjacent village. There he remained fifteen years, building up a large and lucrative practice, and in 1898 went to Philadelphia, taking a course of one term at the Polyclinic of that city. In the spring of 1898 he moved to Wilkinsburg and resumed the general practice of his profession, opening an office on the corner of Hay street and Kelley avenue, and met with marked success. He was a member of the board of health of the borough, also a member of the Allegheny County, Pennsylvania State and American Medical Associations. He was the attending physician at the United Presbyterian Home for the Aged, Wilkinsburg. He identified himself with the Republican party and was a member of the United Presbyterian church.
