General Notes: Husband - Dr. Herman E. McMillin, M.D.


He attended the district schools in the vicinity of his father's farm near Wampum, Pennsylvania, until he was sixteen years of age, when he went to Rock Island, Illinois, and worked two years in a lumber mill. On his return, he attended Grove City College in Mercer County for four years, and then for the next six years was engaged in teaching school. During this period, having already fixed his aim on the medical profession, he was preparing himself by judicious reading to prosecute with credit his studies in that chosen field. He then attended the Western Reserve of Cleveland, Ohio, for a year and the University of Wooster, Ohio, and graduated on March 26, 1891, from the Medical College of Western Pennsylvania. In the following month he came to Mahoningtown, and located and opened an office, where he then engaged in the successful practice of his profession. His practice grew phenomenally, and within the first six months after locating, he could well lay claim to the largest practice in the borough.
Politically, Dr. McMillin always associated himself with the Republican party, and served terms on the school board. Socially, he was a member of Amazon Lodge, No. 336, Knights of Pythias, of Mahoningtown; and of the Lodge of the Craft, No. 433, F. & A. M., of New Castle.
