GREENE COUNTY, OHIO
After about seven years in that state he came to Xenia in the latter part of the '70s, but he was never considered much of a practitioner.
There is no family in Greene county which has furnished more physi- cians than the Folck family, who became identified with Bath township as early as 1802. John George Folck, the first of the family to locate in the county, came here from Pennsylvania and seems to have had a reputation as some kind of a healer when he arrived in the county. At least, for several years his services were in demand throughout his section of the county. Dr. John George Folck died in 1839, leaving each of his four sons a farm. Daniel, one of the sons, received the old homestead, but died two years later, leaving five children: Joseph M., John, Barbara, George and Mary Ann. Joseph M., born July 9, 1824, in the township became the best known physician of the family. He married Barbara Ann Shigley, also a physician, and he and his wife practiced together for nearly forty years. She had an extensive office practice while her husband attended to the traveling cases. One of Dr. J. M. Folck's brothers married a physician, and Dr. Susan Folck is remembered as a faithful physician of the community for many years.
C. B. Jones was born in Greene county in 1849, one of nine children born to George W. Jones and wife. He graduated from one of the medical colleges of Cincinnati in 1872 and at once located' in Xenia to practice. In 1874 he married Alice Ewing, and the following year became the regular physician in charge at the Ohio Sailors and Soldiers Orphans Home at Xenia.
George Watt, a physician and dentist, was born in Greene county, Ohio, in 1820. He was a nephew of James Watt, of Glasgow, Scotland, discov- erer of the composition of water. Doctor Watt was surgeon of the One Hundred and Fifty-fourth Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry, from May 2, 1864, to September 4, 1864, when he was compelled to resign on account of physical disability. He held a professorship in the Ohio College of Dental Surgery of Cincinnati for twenty years, and for fifteen years was editor of the Dental Register. He was twice elected professor of chemistry of two different colleges in New York City, but was unable to accept on account of his health. He was the author of a widely used volume entitled "Watt's Chemical Essays," published in 1867, and he also published hundreds of special articles on chemical and allied subjects. Doctor Watt married Sarah J. McConnell, of Xenia, in 1845.
Doctor McCune is credited with being the first physician in Cedarville township, having located there about 1833. He is not listed among the physicians of the county in 1830, a fact which would indicate that he did not come into the county until after that year. Some of the older residents

have claimed he came to the county before 1830. It is not known how long he remained in the township, nor when or where he died.
J. M. Stewart was born in York district, South Carolina, early in the nineteenth century, probably in the '20s. He came with his parents to Greene county when a boy and located three miles east of Xenia. He completed his education in Xenia and then taught school for eight years. He had been reading medicine in the meantime with Doctor Martin, of Xenia, and in 1846 began the practice of his new profession at Cedarville. He was married in 1848 to Rosanna Orr and they became the parents of five children. He continued to practice in Cedarville until his death.
W. A. Hagenbuck was born in Northampton county, Pennsylvania, in 1831. His parents came to Greene county in 1836 and located at Fairfield. He finished his elementary schooling in the Springfield schools and in 1852 began reading medicine with Dr. J. J. McIlkenney, of Fairfield, remaining with him three years. He then entered Jefferson Medical College, Phila- delphia, graduating in 1855. He first located at Fairfield, but the following year moved to Alpha where he practiced for a number of years. He was mar- ried in 1860 to Sarah J. Harbine.
Oscar M. Marquart was born in Clark county, Ohio, June 5, 1858. He graduated from Miami Medical College of Cincinnati, in 1884, and imme- diately located at Enon, Clark county, for practice. The following year he removed to Osborn, Greene county.
R. S. Finley was born in Winchester, Adams county, Ohio, in 1827, and came with his parents to Xenia when a small boy. He graduated from a Cincinnati Medical School in 1850 and immediately began the practice of his chosen profession in Xenia. He was first called an eclectic physician, but later in life became a homeopath. He died in Xenia in 1906.
Edwin I. Thorn, a son of Isaac Thorn, also a practicing physician of the county, was born at Yellow Springs, October 31, 1847. Dr. Isaac Thorn died of cholera at Springfield in 1849. Dr. Edwin I. Thorn was reared in Springfield, but before reaching his majority began the study of medicine with his uncle, Dr. Elihu Thorn, at Yellow Springs. He then attended for a time the medical department of the University of Michigan, completing his medical education with a year of study in Ohio Medical College at Cincin- nati, graduating from the latter institution in 1868. He at once located in Yellow Springs and practiced with his uncle, Dr. Isaac Thorn, until the latter's death on October 2, 1876. Following the death of his uncle, Dr. Edwin I. Thorn continued the practice of his profession in Yellow Springs.
Frank M. Kent was born in Bellbrook, Greene county, Ohio, on August 31, 1864. He began teaching at the age of nineteen and later took up the study of medicine by reading in the office of Dr. W. H. Finley, then of

GREENE COUNTY, OHIO
Spring Valley, now of Xenia. He entered Ohio Medical College in 1887 and was graduated two years later. His first location was at Lowell, Ohio, but in 1896 he removed to Spring Valley where he practiced until 1905, when he located at Bellevue, Ohio. He was married on June 3, 1891, to Martha Graham.
Clark Madison Galloway was born in Greene county on April 20, 1843, and became recognized as one of the most scholarly men the county has ever produced. After taking an active part in the Civil War as a member of two different regiments, and seeing some of the hardest fighting of the war, he was mustered out at its close, being then only twenty-two years of age. He at once became a student in Xenia College and after completing its course entered Miami University, graduating therefrom in 1871. He was espe- cially attracted to the classics, and as a result of his university work he was well qualified to assume the duties of professor of Greek, Latin and mathe- matics in Xenia College upon his graduation in 1871. He remained with the local college four years, teaching in the summer normal school connected ยท with the college. Meanwhile, he had decided to study medicine, and with this end in view he entered the Medical College of Ohio and completed its full course in the spring of 1877. He at once located in Xenia where he practiced alone until his brother, William A., began practice in 1890. The two brothers then practiced together until the death of the elder brother on November 21, 1914. Dr. C. M. Galloway was active in everything which pertained to the general welfare. Broadminded, sympathetic, and with a comprehensive grasp of men and affairs, he stood as a leader among men. There was no worthy enterprise which did not find in him an enthusiastic supporter. He was coroner of Greene county for eight years; member of the board of education of Xenia for twelve years; physician and surgeon to the Ohio Soldiers and Sailors Orphans Home for three years (1888- 1891) ; for several years secretary of the Xenia board of United States pen- sion examiners; assistant surgeon of the old Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton Railroad for years; member of the city council of Xenia for two years, and a member of the city board of health for the same length of time. He was an active worker in the local post of the Grand Army of the Republic, the Sons of the American Revolution, the Presbyterian church, the Masonic fraternity, and in various medical societies.
William P. Madden was born in County Galway, Ireland, March 14, 1842, and came to this country in his youth, serving four years in the Civil War. He graduated from the Eclectic Institute, of Cincinnati, in 1875. He first located at Cedarville, Ohio, and later removed to Xenia where he prac- ticed until his death on May 30, 1908.
The late Dr. Raymond Wesley Smith received his secondary education

in the high and normal schools of Hillsborough, Ohio, after which he taught school for two years in this county, teaching at New Jasper and at Roxanna. He then entered the Louisville Medical College and Kentucky School of Medicine, from which he was graduated in 1893. In September of that year he located at Spring Valley, where he continued to practice until his death, August 18, 1916, as the result of an automobile accident.
