General Notes: Husband - Dr. David Courtney Galbraith


He grew up under the parental roof and received his early education in the common schools. In 1855 he commenced reading medicine in the office of Doctor James Cossitt of New Castle, Pennsylvania, and one of the pioneer physicians of Mercer County, and continued under his instructions about three years, afterward spending a year in the office of Doctor Taylor, of Mercer. He attended lectures at the Western Reserve Medical College, Cleveland, Ohio, in the sessions of 1856-57 and 1858-59, graduating in the latter year. He soon afterward went south, but returned to Ohio in the fall of 1861, and was appointed assistant surgeon and subsequently surgeon in General Butler’s command, serving in all over two years. In 1862 he opened an office at Polk, Venango County, PA, and excepting the time spent in the army, practiced there about nine years. In 1865-66 he attended the Ohio Medical College at Cincinnati, and graduated therefrom in the latter year. In 1871 he moved to Franklin, where he built up a large and lucrative practice, being one of its best known medical practitioners.
