General Notes: Husband - Dr. Emanuel Brallier
After receiving a liberal education he began teaching school in 1858, which occupation he followed until September, 1862, the last being the select school at Cherry Tree, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. Closing his school, he enlisted in the army on the 7th of September, 1862, for service in the Civil War. Shortly after going out he was promoted corporal, and held that position until May 2d, 1862, when, while on the battlefield of Chancellorsville he was promoted to second sergeant, which place he held for some time, being then promoted to first sergeant and occupying that position until nearly the close of the war, when he received the commission of captain. At the organization of the company he was chosen company clerk, and occupied the position until the dissolution of the company at Harrisburg, June 1, 1865. During the war he was engaged in seventeen battles, being the first man to mount the enemy's works at Hatcher's Run, February 5th, 1865. He was also present at the surrender of Gen. Lee to Gen. Grant, at Appomattox, April 9, 1865. A few weeks after returning from the army, in 1865, he was nominated for, and duly elected to the office of county auditor in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, for a term of three years, from October of that year. Finding that the duties of the office interfered with the prosecution of his studies, after serving for one year he resigned. He first commenced the study of anatomy and physiology in 1860, but never regularly entered the office of any physician until his return from the army in June, 1865, when he registered and studied with the late R. S. Bunn, M. D., of Ebensburg. In October, 1866, he matriculated in both the Jefferson Medical College and Lying-in Charity, of Philadelphia, receiving his diploma from each of the above institutions in March, 1868; that of the Lying-in Charity March 5th, 1868, and on March 7th, 1868, the degree of Doctor of Medicine from the Jefferson Medical College. About two weeks after graduation he located to practice his profession in Cherry Tree, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. He engaged in general practice, but gave particular attention to gynaecology and diseases of children, with success. In 1870 he became a member of the Indiana County Medical Society, and in 1876 became a permanent member of the State Medical Society of Pennsylvania, and of the American Medical Association, representing the county in the former once and the latter twice. He filled several offices in the Indiana County Medical Society, being its president for 1879.
He took a very active part in education, contributing to schools and improvising plans to facilitate teaching in the local schools, serving as director of the Cherry Tree Male and Female College and one of its faculty during its existence, and for some years was one of the directors of the public schools, and served as secretary of the board. He was one of the organizers of the Cherry Tree Scientific Lecture Club, lecturing on anatomy and physiology.
He was born at the homestead farm near Belsano, Black Lick township, Cambria County, Pennsylvania. He obtained a good English education, chose medicine as his profession, prepared at Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and at the close of an active, useful life was engaged in the practice of his profession at Chambersburg, Franklin County. Most of his professional life had been spent in Chambersburg and there he was held in high esteem as an honorable, skillful physician. During the Civil War he enlisted as a private, was promoted for bravery on the field of battle to the rank of sergeant, and for "gallant and meritorious service," was later commissioned lieutenant and finally captain.
