DAVID ABNER STRICKLER, M. D.

  Dr. Strickler was born in 1859 on the Strickler homestead, about two miles 
east of Chambersburg, a son of Jacob and Anna (Stouffer) Strickler.  He was 
educated in the schools of the County, studied medicine with Dr. Benjamin Bowman 
and was graduated M. D., 1881, from Hahneman Medical College, Philadelphia, Pa.

  Dr. Strickler practiced medicine in Chambersburg and vicinity until 1883, when 
he removed to Duluth, Minn.  Sometime later he was appointed to a professorship 
in the Minnesota State College at St. Paul and removed to that city.  In 1895 he 
removed to Denver, Colo., and limited his practice to eye, ear, nose and throat 
work, and a few years later became a member of the faculty of the Denver 
Homoeopathic Medical College.

  Dr. Strickler married first Susan Shirk and second, Gertrude Olmstead.  He now 
resides in Denver, Colorado.
