General Notes: Husband - Dr. O. W. McEntire


As he grew to manhood he clerked in his father's store at Fillmore, Centre County, Pennsylvania, receiving his early education in the schools of the neighborhood. Later he was prepared for college at Penn Hall Academy, and at Centre Hall, then, late in the 1870s, entered Pennsylvania State College, where he pursued his studies for a year and a half.
After this he went to Washington, D. C., and studied medicine in the office, and under the direction, of Thomas B. Hood, M. D. He attended lectures in the medical department of Howard University, in that city, and was graduated in 1884. After his graduation he returned to Fillmore, Pennsylvania, and there began the practice of medicine, remaining at that point one year. From there he went to Mill Hall, and followed his profession for several years, thence going to Philadelphia, where in 1891 he was graduated from Jefferson Medical College. While attending lectures at that institution, he also was a student at the Pennsylvania School of Anatomy. Returning to Centre County, he located in practice at Howard. He was a member of the Clinton and Centre County Medical Society; also of West Branch Medical Society. Socially, he was a member of the Knights of the Golden Eagle; P. O.
