General Notes: Husband - John Cowden Welch

---

Bellevue, Allegheny Co, PA - a physician

He graduated from Washington and Jefferson College in the class of 1889, having been one year out of college, during which he taught school in Cherokee County, Iowa. After his graduation he spent, with his mother, a year in Pasadena, California. He then entered the Medical Department of the University of Pennsylvania. Having obtained association with the late Dr. Wm. Stewart as his preceptor, who was then Dean of the Medico-Chirurgical College, he entered that institution and graduated with honors in 1893. He successfully passed applicant's examinations for resident physician in the Medico-Chi. Hospital, the Methodist Episcopal Hospital and the Philadelphia City hospital or Blockly Almshouse. He chose the latter as affording the best training on account of its very much larger capacity, and remained on active duty as physician and surgeon for 15 months. In 1895 he established himself in practice on Lincoln Avenue, Bellevue, Pennsylvania. He was connected with St. John's General hospital, of Allegheny, as one of the organizers and attendant physicians.
