General Notes: Husband - Dr. Joseph Donaldson Wallace


Upon the death of his mother, in 1871, he was in a manner bequeathed to his grandfather, who took charge of his education. He was placed in different preparatory schools and finished at the Oakdale Academy. He then entered upon the study of medicine in the University of Pennsylvania, and in due course he graduated with the highest honors of his class. He commenced the practice of his profession in Philadelphia, and from his enlarged opportunities in hospital practice his career promised to be a very brilliant one. After several premonitions he was violently attacked with appendicitis, May 30, 1899. The surgeon's knife was applied the next day, and he died June 1st and was buried at Philadelphia.

At the time of his decease, he was a physician of high standing and was professor of anatomy in Jefferson Medical College.
