General Notes: Husband - Dr. Thomas Newton McKee, M.D.

---

He began his educa-tion in the public schools of the home district, and later attended Deanville Academy, to prepare himself for teaching. For the fol-lowing four years he taught public school, and then began the study of medicine with Dr. C. J. Jessop, of Kittanning. While under Dr. Jessop's instruction, he was favored with exceptional opportunities for acquiring experienced knowledge, especially along anatomical lines, and in the dissecting room. Entering the University of Pittsburgh, he was graduated from the medical department of that institution March 27, 1890, and then served a year as resident physician at the West Pennsylvania hospital. The following year he located at Ford City, remaining there a few years, not only engaging in active private practice but also as physician and surgeon for the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company. In the spring of 1894 he removed to DuBois, Pennsylvania, where he remained about eighteen months, on Feb. 4, 1896, making another change-moving to Kittanning. He served as county medical inspector, under the State board of health of Pennsylvania, and was subsequently appointed county medical inspector, when the Pennsylvania department of health was created in 1905. He was physician-in-charge of the Pennsylvania State Tuberculosis Dispensary, No. 24, and was a member of the medical staff of the Kittanning general hospital beginning at its organization. A prominent member of the Armstrong County Medical Society, he served as its president, and in 1910 was elected vice president of the Pennsylvania State Medical Society. He was one of the vice presidents of the International Tuberculosis Congress which met in September, 1908, and delivered a lecture on Tuberculosis before the assembly. [HAC 1914, 323]
Dr. McKee enlisted at the beginning of the first World War as a first lieutenant, and for sixteen months he was stationed at the Camp Dix Base Hospital; thereafter he was appointed to higher office from time to time, and until he became lieutenant-colonel in command of the 343rd Regiment, Medical Reserve Corps.
Fraternally Dr. McKee was a high Mason, being a member of Kittanning Lodge, No. 244 (of which he was master in 1901); Mount Moriah Council, No. 2, R. & S. M.; Orient Chapter, No. 247, R. A. M. (high priest, 1903); Pittsburgh Commandery, No. 1, K. T. (held all the offices in that body and was installed as eminent commander April 8, 1913); Pennsylvania Consistory, A. A. S. R. (thirty-second degree, which he joined in 1902); and Syria Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S.
He and his wife and their family were members of the First Presbyterian Church.
