EDWARD INGELS,1 retired physician; P. 0. Paris; was born in this city in 1821, and was 
the seventh son of Boone and Elizabeth (Reed) Ingels. Edward was raised in this place 
and was educated in Lexington, at the Transylvania University, graduating there in 1841. 
Soon after he graduated he began the practice of his profession in his native town, and 
continued without intermission until 1871, since that time he has retired from active 
practice, only prescribing and visiting some of his most intimate friends, who insist 
upon his still serving them. In 1833 he was united in wedlock to Bettie Massie, daughter 
of Jonathan Massie; Mrs. Ingels died in 1868, leaving one son, Edward. In 1876 he married 
Ella (Chew) Pinkerton, daughter of Dr. William and Helen (Ware) Chew. Dr. Chew was a 
regular graduate in Materia Medica; he was born in Fredericksburg, Va., 1816; son of 
Joseph Chew. The wife of Dr. Chew was born in Frankfort, this State; she was a daughter 
of James Ware. Dr. Chew practiced his profession several years in Midway, until 1868, 
when he removed to Texas where he now resides. To him were born a family of four daughters 
and three sons. Mrs. Ingel’s maiden name, as above stated, was Ella Chew, but at the time 
of her marriage she was the relict of W. W. Pinkerton, a lawyer by profession, a native 
of Ohio, and son of L. L. Pinkerton. Boone Ingels, the father of our subject, was a Whig, 
and at one time represented his county in the Legislature.
