D. Of the men devoted to the science of healing in Butler > county, none brings to bear upon his calling larger gifts of scholarship than > Dr. Hugh Miller Moore, of Oxford. For the past decade and a half his name has > been increasingly identified with the best tenets of medical and surgical > science, and by many of the longest established and most conservative families > his skill, resource and obliging temperament have come to be regarded and > indispensable. Doctor Moore was born at Venice, Ohio, April 20, 1876, a son of > Rev. D. R. Moore, D. D., and a grandson of Rev. William H. Moore, for many years > a leading Presbyterian divine. Rev. D. R. Moore was born at Rising Sun, Ohio, > and attended Miami university, where, he met as a fellow-student, Elvira > Gilchrist, who later became his first wife, and Hugh Miller Moore was the only > child of this union. She was a daughter of Dr. Hugh Gilchrist, a noted > practitioner of medicine of his day. After graduating from Mi! > ami university, Reverend Moore attended Lane seminary, where he received the > degree of Doctor of Divinity and entered the ministry of the Presbyterian > church, subsequently holding pastorates at Brookville, Logan, South Salem and > Bond Hill, Ohio. When he retired from the ministry he adopted agricultural > pursuits as his vocation, and at present is residing on a farm near > Billingsville, Ohio. His first wife died at Brookville in 1881 and he later > married Clara King, they becoming the parents of five children: Dr. Paul, a > successful practising physician of Cleveland, Ohio; Stanley, a farmer, who > carries on operations for his father; Ross, who is also engaged in farming, near > Liberty, Ind.; Hazelett, a physician, engaged in practice in association with > his brother Hugh M.; and Robert, aged seventeen years, who is a helmsman in the > United States Naval Reserves. After attending the public schools Doctor Moore > entered Miami university, where he secured the degree of Master of Sci! > ence, following which he went to Johns Hopkins university for his medi > cal training and was duly graduated after a brilliant college career with the > degree of Doctor of Medicine. To further prepare himself for his life work, he > took post-graduate work at Prague and Berlin, and eventually settled at Oxford, > where he has since built up a gratifyingly large and prominent practice. Doctor > Moore has the zeal which recognizes no limitations to his calling, and the great > unrest which projects him into ever-widening channels of research. Energy, > adaptability, gentleness and sympathy have blazed the way for the acquirement of > valuable professional compensations, and a realization of professional > ambitions, and by the same token it may be said of Doctor Moore that much is > promised to a man who has, in addition, the maturity, practical experience and > broad outlook on life of forty-three years. During the great war he offered his > services to his Government, and was accepted as a member of the Medical Reserve > Corps. In addition to his professional inte! > rests, he has important connections in other fields of endeavor, and is > vice-president of the Farmers Bank of Oxford, of which he was one of the > organizers, and is the owner of a large farm in Franklin county, as well as > valuable property at Oxford. He is a member of the various bodies of his > profession, being a Fellow of the American Academy of Medicine, and has > important associations in civic and social life. At the time he settled at > Oxford, he was married to Gertrude Burrill, of Baird, Texas, who was a student > at Oxford Female college. His present wife, with whom he was united February > 19, 1919, was formerly Miss Elizabeth Beaton of Oxford, daughter of Daniel > Beaton. > > on page 718: > in bio on Percy C.
