General Notes: Husband - Dr. Loring Lusk, M.D.


He was reared in Hudson, Summit County, Ohio, where his parents settled at quite an early day. He studied medicine under his brother-in-law, Dr. Cossitt, of Mercer, Pennsylvania. He commenced the practice of medicine at Harmony, Butler County, in 1823, removed to Beaver County in 1829, and continued in practice there for a few years. He next engaged extensively as a contractor in the construction of the Pittsburg and Erie canal, but returned to Harmony in 1844, and resumed the practice of his profession. In 1854 he removed to Canton, Lewis County, Missouri, where he practiced until 1861. He was then appointed surgeon of the Twenty-first Missouri Volunteers, remained one year in the service, and again returned to Zelienople, where he established a drug store, which he carried on until his death.
