JOHN H. PLEW, M. D., is a native of Sullivan County, Ind., and
was born February 17, 1851.  His parents, James and Minerva
(Marlow) Plew, were natives of Kentucky and among the earliest
settlers of the Hoosier State.  John H. resided with his parents until
eighteen years of age, receiving the advantages of a good education.
At that age he began for himself, and for some time gave instruction
in vocal music.  He then took up the study of medicine, and after
applying himself diligently to his books for some time, he began
practice, and in 1880 graduated from the American Eclectic College
of Cincinnati, Ohio.  He has been a close and careful student of
pathology, as he found it in his practice, and has become a leader
in the use of new and rational remedies.  He has practiced both in
Knox and Sullivan Counties, and has been uniformly successful
in the treatment of all cases coming under his care.  His union with
Miss Lizzie Hinkle, daughter of Nathan and Martha (Pitt) Hinkle,
was celebrated April 9, 1874.  To this union has been born three
children--Maud, Ethel and Amyl.  Dr. Plew is in politics a Democrat.
He is an enterprising and public-spirited citizen, and a useful and
influential member of society.
