   DR. JEFFERSON R. HILLDRUP, a native of Union County, Ind., was born October
1, 1844, and is the only son of James and Laura (Lee) Hilldrup, natives of
Virginia and Ohio, and of English descent. His father was married in Wayne
County, Ind., about 1842. He subsequently removed to Philomath, Ind., where he
taught in the academy two years, when he located in Madison County and engaged
in goods business at Monticello; he remained here until his death, October 9,
1853. Dr. Hilldrup attended the common schools, and at the age of fourteen
entered White Water College, at Centerville, Wayne Co., Ind.; he taught from
1862 to 1868, at which time he started West, and spent two years in Kansas and
Missouri; he then returned to Madison County, Ind., where he taught school the
following winter, and in the spring of 1871 began the study of medicine in the
office of Dr. Zimri Hockett, of Anderson, Ind.; he remained in Anderson in all
three years, and in the meantime attended two courses of lectures at the Medical
College at Indianapolis; he graduated there with honors in the spring of 1876,
and soon after engaged in the practice of medicine at Anderson. In the spring of
1879, he located at Windfall, where he has since practiced, except the summer of
1882, which was spent at Fishersburg, Madison Co., Ind. Dr. Hilldrup is an
active, energetic man, and is fast becoming one of the leading physicians of
Tipton County.
