General Notes: Husband - Joseph Mickle Fox


He entered the Medical Department of the University of Pennsylvania, and graduated with degree of M. D. in 1877. He practiced his profession for several years, residing at Torresdale, Philadelphia, and later at Leesburg, Virginia. He was surgeon of Out-Patient Department of Pennsylvania Hospital, the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and the University Hospital. He was a frequent contributor to medical and scientific journals. His skill as a surgeon is evinced by the fact that he performed the first successful case of abdominal section for a gunshot wound, in Philadelphia. A number of other noted operations performed by him are on record.
