General Notes: Husband - Dr. Wilson Potter Ard

---

Being left without a mother's tender care at an early age, he and his brother, J. B., were placed by their father in school at McVeytown, on the Juniata river, near Lewistown, Pennsylvania, where they remained some five years, and were subsequently students in the Pine Grove Mills Academy for the same length of time, there completing their literary educations.

He attended the schools at Lewistown and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the academies at Tuscarora and McVeytown, spending several years in the latter institution. His medical studies were begun under the preceptorship of Prof. W. H. Pancoast, of Philadelphia, and his degree of M. D. was obtained from Jefferson Medical College in 1880. Thus prepared for his professional work, he located at Bismarck, Lebanon County, remaining more than a year, but in the fall of 1882 he removed to Woodward, Centre County, where he established a large and lucrative practice.
The Doctor was a man of culture, his reading extending beyond professional literature, in which he kept well posted. During his residence in Philadelphia, he was pleasantly associated with some eminent practitioners; but the restfulness and peace of a life in the country appealed to him strongly, causing him to seek a home there. Politically he was a Democrat, and he took great interest in the success of his party.
