General Notes: Husband - Adam Carl, M.D.

---

His father died while the Doctor was quite young, and he was taken by his brother, with whom he lived. He obtained his literary education in the schools of Hanover, Pennsylvania, and while a young man he became a clerk in an apothecary store in Carlisle. In the meantime he had become interested in medicine, and decided to adopt that profession as his life calling, and when twenty-four years of age became a student of Dr. James Henry Miller, at Baltimore, Maryland, who was professor of the theory and practice of medicine in Washington Medical College, Baltimore, where he graduated in March, 1829. The Doctor came to Greencastle, Pennsylvania, in 1825, and started a drug store the same year on South Carlisle Street.
He was in constant practice of his profession in Greencastle for fifty-eight years, but the last three or four years attended only upon special old patients, or in consultation.
The Doctor was there during the invasion of Lee, and on the enemy's retreat to Virginia treated many of their wounded while passing through Greencastle. When he first settled he had a large practice, extending fifteen miles in all directions, his visits all being made on horseback.
The Doctor was a member of the Lutheran Church at Greencastle. He served his church as deacon for several years, and as an elder for over fifty years.
