General Notes: Husband - Robert J. Munce, M.D.

---

He received his primary education at the log school-house of the locality of his birth, and as soon as he was old enough commenced to work on his father's farm, his chief occupation at first being to thresh the grain. In the spring of 1842 he entered Washington College, Washington, Pennsylvania, attending and teaching school alternately until September, 1847, when he graduated in a class of thirty-three.
He married and took up residence in Henry County, Iowa, where he remained some five years, at the end of which time he returned to North Strabane township. He then purchased a farm, which he then brought to a fertile condition.
He studied medicine under the preceptorship of Dr. Stephens, of Washington, Pennsylvania, with whom he remained three years, and later took a course at Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. He first practiced in Richland County, Ohio, whence he moved to Henry County, Iowa, where he continued to practice, but his health failing he returned to Washington County, as already related.
The family were members of the Hill Presbyterian Church, of which he was a liberal supporter. He was a stanch Republican, and served as a member of the school board several years.
He was the owner of 475 acres of land.

After his marriage in Washington County, Pennsylvania, he removed to Ohio, where he practiced medicine for ten years, when failing health compelled him to give up his practice, and he returned to the farm in Washington County, where he resided until his death. [TCHWWC, 915]
