N. T. CLEVENGER, M. D., was born in Washington County, Penn., in 1844, and is a son of Edward and Mary CLEVENGER. The father was a farmer, and died in 1873. The mother is yet living. Their son, N. T. Clevenger, was first educated in the common schools, and then attended Carmichaelsborough Academy, in Greene County, Penn., for two terms, at which time he graduated. He afterward attended the Philadelphia Medical College, and began practicing medicine in the northern part of Missouri, but at the end of one year came to Lawrence County, where he has since resided. By his ability, energy, and close attention to business he has acquired a large and lucrative practice. He owns considerable property in Marionville, and has a drug store in the town. In 1864 he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah LONG, of West Virginia, and by her is the father of seven children: Orra B., Horace G., Waldo E., Effie May, Bell Vernon, Beatrice and Baby. Dr. Clevenger is a member of the Masonic, I.O.O.F. and K. of L. fraternities.
