   H. H. Dochterman, attorney, Covington, who has made rapid strides of progress
toward a place of prominence at the Fountain county bar, is a native of Franklin
county, Indiana. In 1849, when he was but a child, his parents moved to
Montgomery county, Indiana. His father, Charles E. Dochterman, was a millwright
by trade, though shortly after his removal to Montgomery county he took up the
study of medicine, and had but just fitted himself to practice when, in May,
1854, he was taken sick and died. H. H. had progressed so far in his studies as
(1866) to be admitted to Asbury University, from which he graduated in the class
of 1869. While in college he also read law in a private office of practicing
attorneys. After leaving college he spent some time in teaching. He afterward
became a resident of Covington, and during 1871-2 he was studying law with the
firm of Stillwell & Wood. In 1872 he began practice, and in 1875 made his first
efforts in the supreme court of Indiana. He is a member of the Board of School
Trustees of Covington, and is also a member of Covington Lodge, No. 21, I. O. O. F.
