General Notes: Husband - Martin L. Herr, M.D.
He was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and acquired his early education in the State Normal School at Millersville. Upon the completion of his elementary studies in 1860, he began reading medicine with Dr. Patrick Cassidy, of Lancaster, and attended his first course of lectures at Jefferson Medical College. In 1862 he entered the medical department of the Army of the Cumberland, where he had full opportunity to avail himself of the superior advantages of hospital medical and surgical practice. He completed his lecture term at the Medical University of Nashville, and was graduated from that institution in 1864. Dr. Herr continued his service in the army hospitals until the winter of 1866, ably ranking among the most skillful in surgical practice. Returning, he settled in Lancaster, where his skill in the treatment of diseases soon gained him a large practice, and where the constantly-increasing demand for his services made his name widely known throughout that section of the state. Dr. Herr was a member of the Lancaster City and County Medical Society, of which he served officially, of the State Medical Society, and of the American Medical Association. He was an efficient director of the Lancaster City School Board, and a member of the Common Council, of which body he was chairman for several terms. He was an influential member of the Independent Order of Odd-Fellows, and of St. James' Episcopal Church of Lancaster. [HLC 1883, 282]
