General Notes: Husband - Dr. Jonathan Bennett Perrine


He lived at the place of his birth until the age of sixteen years. In that time he received his preparatory education in the local schools, and after attending the Sandy Lake Institute for three years he entered the Medico-Chirurgical College at Philadelphia, from which institution he graduated June 7, 1912. For the year following, until July 1, 1913, he was resident physician in the General Hospital at McKeesport, PA, and subsequently practiced at Sheakleyville, Mercer County, until September, 1914, since when he has been located at Wesley (Mechanicsville), in Irwin Township, Venango County. His field was an extensive one, there being no other physician within six miles, and he acquired a patronage which kept him well occupied. He belonged to the standard associations, the Venango County Medical Society and the Pennsylvania State Medical Society, and also maintained an affiliation with the Omega Upsilon Phi medical fraternity, as well as the I. O. O. F. at Henderson. By way of recreation he enjoyed hunting and fishing.

He received his early formal education at Sandy Lake Institute, Pennsylvania, where he was graduated in 1908. He took the degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1912 at the Medical College of the University of Pennsylvania, in Philadel­phia, and served his interneship at McKeesport Hospital, in McKeesport. Completing his studies, he started his practice in Sheakleyville, where he was a general practi­tioner until 1914, then moving to Wesley, Venango County, where he practiced till 1924. He and his family then removed to Grove City.
He took a leading part in the affairs of his profes­sion, being elected secretary of the Mercer County Medi­cal Society in 1929 and holding that position until 1938. He was elected president in 1941. He was deputy coroner of Grove City for some years, and was a member of the board of directors of Grove City Hospital. He was a member, too, of the hospital staff. A leader in many civic and social activities, Dr. Perrine was a Republican in politics, a member of the Kiwanis Club, and an active leader in fraternal affairs. He was a charter member of the Grove City Lodge, Benevo­lent and Protective Order of Elks; was affiliated with the lodge and the Scottish Rite Consistory in the Free and Accepted Masons, and belonged to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
