DOCTOR J. H. KAUFFMAN, the leading representative of the medical fraternity located
at the village of Dassel, is a native of Newburgh, Cumberland county, Pa., born
October 29, 1859, and is the son of Henry and Mary (Wilkins) Kauffman, both of whom
are also natives of the “Old Keystone State.” The father of our subject has been for
many years in the drug business at Newburgh, and is still carrying on that business.
The Doctor received his education in his native town, and, as he grew older, was
taken into the store by his father, where he grew to be a proficient clerk. On
attaining his majority his father gave him a co-partnership, and the firm name was
changed to Kauffman & Son. In the fall of 1881 our subject matriculated at Jefferson
Medical College, at Philadelphia, and remained there throughout the terms of 1881
and 1882. Ho then entered the New York University, from which he was graduated in
March, 1884. Returning to Newburgh, he opened an office in his native town, in
connection with the drug business, an interest in which he still retained, but in
1887 sold out there with the intention of removing to Dakota, but, on bis arrival in
Minneapolis changed his mind and came to Dassel, and commenced practice in January
of that year. He has gained the confidence and esteem of the people of the village
by his honorable principles and excellent judgment, and the surrounding country have
a deep regard-for his general success, and his practice has already assumed good
proportions and is on the increase. He is a member of the Masonic fraternity, having
been made a Mason in Big Spring Lodge, No. 361, at Newvillc, Pa.
