General Notes: Husband - Dr. Hugh Alexander

---

After preparatory studies with Drs. Ard and Henderson, of Lewistown, Pennsylvania, he attended medical Lectures in the University of Pennsylvania, where he enjoyed the instruction of Drs. Gibson, Physick, James, and Chapman, all eminent in their profession. Having graduated in 1824, he went the same year to the state of Ohio and settled near Dayton, where he commenced the practice of medicine. In 1834 he removed to Middletown, Butler County, Ohio, where he resided until 1847. His health being then infirm, he purchased the farm of his wife's grandfather in Montgomery County, Ohio. Having retired from medical practice, he lived there until his death by pneumonia.
