DR. LORAIN ISENBERG

Died at his home in Shrever, O.  Mr. R. A. Isenberg of this city, in 
response to a letter written by him to Dr. Isenberg, in which he asked 
various questions with relation to suggestions concerning the coming 
annual reunion of the Isenberg family, received instead of a letter a 
copy of the Shreve News, in which the death of the doctor was 
announced.  Dr. Isenberg was the son of Philip Isenberg, who died in 
Maryland, but whose widow, with several of her brothers-in-law, came to 
Alexandria, Huntingdon county, about the year 1804.  Later Philip went 
to Ohio, where Lorain was born in 1852, in Knox county.  Dr. Lorain 
Isenberg at the time of his death, which occurred at Jacksonville, 
Fla., was aged 54 years and 10 months.  He married at Shreve and three 
years ago his wife died, leaving him one daughter, two other children 
having died in infancy.  He studied medicine and for twenty-five years 
practised in Shreve, being very successful.  He was a member of the 
Masonic fraternity and in politics was a Republican.
