General Notes: Husband - Dr. Joseph Miles Grube, M.D.
He received his early education in the public schools and academies of Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, later was a student at the State College in Centre County, and completed his literary course at Edinboro, Erie County. Having been reared on a farm, his first work was along that line, but he later engaged in teaching, having charge of the home school, where his pupils were mostly relatives and former school mates. Subsequently he taught at Burnside, Clearfield County, for two years, during which time he read medicine with his brother, Dr. G. W. Grube. Entering the Medico Chirurgical College at Philadelphia, he graduated from that institution in the class of 1889, and at once began the practice of his chosen profession at Gallitzin, Cambria County, in partnership with his brother. Besides their regular practice they served as surgeons for the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. After a year and a half the partnership was dissolved, and our subject located in Lindsey, where he soon afterward established a drug store. He was a member of the Jefferson County Medical Society, and of the State Medical Society.
He and his wife were both members of the First Baptist Church of Punxsutawney, of which he served as trustee. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity, and in politics he was always identified with the Republican party.
