- CLARA L. NORMINGTON, M.D., has been engaged in the practice
of medicine in Janesville
- since the spring of 1878. Dr. NORMINGTON is a native of Durand,
Winnebago Co., Ill., where her birth occurred in 1854. He father,
William NORMINGTON, is one of the early settlers of that county,
where he is still residing.
- Our subject attended the public schools of her native town,
and was graduated from the high school
- of Durand in the class of 1874. About a year later she began
the study of medicine at the Women's Medical College of Chicago,
from which institution she was graduated in 1878, locating at
Janesville soon afterward. Her school of medicine is the allopathic,
and she has secured a good and lucrative practice. She makes
a specialty of diseases of women and children, and wins the confidence
of all her patients. She is well educated in the science of medicine,
which, with her natural adaptation to its practice, renders her
well qualified for the profession she has chosen.
- Dr. NORMINGTON, on Christmas Day of 1883, became the wife
of Charles E. JENKINS, of
- Janesville, but professionally, she retains her maiden name
as a matter of convenience.
