  DR. MILTON H. HERBINE physician, P.O. Applebachsville, is 
a native of Berks county, and was born in 1857.  The 
ancestors of the family came from Holland in 1740, and 
settled in Oley township, Berks county.  Dr. Jonathan S. 
Herbine, a grandson of the first pioneer, is now a 
practicing physician at Sinking Spring, Berks county.  He 
married Elizabeth, a daughter of Jacob Winters, of Berks 
county.  Six children were the result of this union, Milton 
H. being the oldest.  The latter attended the public schools 
until 17 years of age, when he entered Palatinate college, 
at Myerstown, remaining there two years, after which he 
engaged in teaching for two years.  In 1876 he commenced to 
study medicine under his father.  In 1877 he entered 
Jefferson Medical college, at Philadelphia, and graduated in 
1879, at the age of 21.  In 1884 he married Lizzie, daughter 
of R. B. Delp, of Church Hill, Bucks county.  They have had 
two children:  Carrie and Hattie, the former deceased.  In 
1879 Dr. Herbine came to Applebachsville, where he has since 
remained, and has built up a large and lucrative practice.  
He and Mrs. Herbine are members of the German Reformed 
church.  Politically the doctor is a democrat.
