General Notes: Husband - Dr. James Ross


He was born in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and removed in 1833, to Strattonville, Clarion County. Here he grew to maturity and entered the University of Pennsylvania with the intention of becoming a physician. Taking a first course, he was compelled to withdraw in order to earn the funds for continuing his medical education. Practicing and studying for ten years, he was finally enabled to graduate at the University and became known as one of the earliest practitioners of Clarion County. After following his profession in Strattonville for a period of two years, he took up his residence in Clarion, in which town he lived, from 1835 until his death, having practiced for a period covering almost half a century. He was a member of the State and County Medical Associations, and of the American Medical Association, having served as president and treasurer of the County Medical Association. He occupied also the office of pension examiner for a number of years. Dr. Ross, as well as his wife, was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church.
