General Notes: Husband - Dr. Adam Monroe Mohney


He remained under the parental roof until he attained the age of twenty-four, but eight years previous he commenced teaching school-a profession he successfully followed for one decade during the winter seasons, while during the summer months he attended the Corsica and West Millville Normals. At the age of twenty-six he began reading medicine with Dr. Henry, of West Millville, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, and subsequently was a student at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Baltimore, Maryland, from which noted institution he graduated in 1882 with the degree of M. D. From 1881 until 1887 he engaged in practice in Leatherwood, Clarion County, and then moved to Rimersburg, where he soon succeeded in building up a large and lucrative practice. Both professionally and financially he met with success, and, besides his elegant home and office in Rimersburg, he owned a farm and other valuable property.
Fraternally the Doctor was a Royal Arch Mason, belonging to the Chapter in Clarion, and was also a member of the Odd Fellows Society and the Knights of Pythias in Rimersburg. For some years he served as elder in the Reformed Church, with which he was connected. Although an ardent Democrat in politics he never aspired to office.
