General Notes: Husband - Herbert E. Barr, M. D.


He was born while his father was serving as a missionary in India. He lived in India until he was twelve years of age, and he owed his early education to the patient care of a beloved mother, who so carefully trained him that when the family had returned to Pennsylvania he was prepared to enter the preparatory department of Westminster College, although then but fourteen years old. He remained at this institution until he graduated and later took a special medical course at the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, and was finally graduated at the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. He immediately established his residence at New Wilmington, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. With his family he belonged to the United Presbyterian Church. His home was a two-story structure standing opposite the post-office on Main Street.
