Clarence Edgar Yount
Arizona, The Youngest State, 1913

Dr. Clarence Edgar Yount, a prominent and successful 
representative of the medical fraternity in Prescott 
has there practiced his profession continuously since 
1902.  His birth occurred in Iowa in 1874, his parents 
being E.M. and Laura (Musselman) Yount.  He acquired his 
early education in the graded schools and afterward pursued 
a high school course at Washington D.C., his father being 
connected with the Bureau of Pensions in the nation's capital.

Having determined upon a professional career, Clarence E. 
Yount entered the medical department of Georgetown University 
and was graduated from that institution in 1896.  He 
subsequently practiced in Washington until 1902 and then 
came to Arizona, locating in Prescott, which has since 
remained the scene of his professional labors.  An extensive 
and steadily growing practice has been accorded him as he 
has demonstrated his ability in coping with the intricate 
problems which continually confront the physician in his 
efforts to restore health and prolong health.  Through his 
membership in a number of medical societies he keeps in 
close touch with the progress of his profession.  Dr. 
Yount was formerly contract surgeon of the United States 
Army at Whipple Barracks and now serves as surgeon to the 
National Guard, with  the rank of major.

On the 14th of December , 1904, Dr. Yount was united in 
marriage to Miss Clara N. Criley, a daughter of Dr. J.M. 
Criley, a resident of Prescott but a native of Ohio.  Our 
subject and his wife have three children: Clarence E. Jr., 
Robert E. and Martha.
