Anne E. Woolley, "Jacob Brenneman Hough," e-mail message to Warren County Genealogical Society, 9 November 2016.

I am a Charter and founding member of WCGS and have First Family recognition. [Anne is a descendant of Col. Lewis Drake (1766-1849) and his daughter Isabell Drake Evans (1809-1887)]
I saw the reference to schools and am submitting this account of my Great Great Grandfather Jacob Brenneman Hough, MD (1829-1897) who practiced in Waynesville. He attended Lebanon Academy according to this article. The Houghs became a prominent Lebanon family with his son Charles A Hough also becoming a doctor. The Houghs descend from a long line of Bucks County and Lancaster County Quakers going back to the 1600's.

JACOB B. HOUGH was born in Camargo, Pa., in 1829. He was educated at Lebanon Academy, Lebanon, Ohio, and the University of Michigan, graduating at the latter institution in 1865. He became professor of chemistry at his Alma Mater. Two years later he located in Lebanon, Ohio, and remained here as a practicing physician for a number of years. In 1873 he moved to Cincinnati and established himself as an analytical and consulting chemist. In the same year he was appointed professor of chemistry and toxicology in the Miami Medical College. He filled this chair for six years. He died in Lebanon in 1897. He was elected vice-president of the Ohio State Medical Society in 1873.
Hough was a very capable chemist, who published numerous valuable papers on subjects pertaining to chemistry. He was also a biologist who did much original work, especially in connection with the spontaneous generation. He wrote a practical handbook on chemical testing.

"Another Murder in Waynesville? ~ Captain William Rion Hoel" Blogspot by Karen Campbell
". . . William Hoel, who was also widely known for his jealous temper and violent ways, believed that his wife Elizabeth Hunt Hoel and Dr. J. B. Hough, a physician with his office in Waynesville and a lecturer at Miami Valley College, were having an affair. On that inauspicious morning Captain Hoel had led everyone to believe he was traveling early to Cincinnati via the 4:00 A.M. train to get on the Ohio River but instead he clandestinely stayed in Waynesville and backtracked to his home to spy on his wife, Elizabeth. Dr. J. B. Hough was in the house delivering medicine and examining Elizabeth who had been feeling ill for many months. Believing that he had caught his wife and Dr. Hough in the act, he rushed into the parlor and threatened to kill Dr. Hough. There was a scuffle and Captain Hoel was shot with his own revolver during the struggle between the two men. The coroner’s inquest was conducted by Squire William Mannington of Waynesville, a retired shoemaker and Justice of the Peace, at Kildere Farm. He played the double role of Justice of the Peace and coroner since there was no coroner within 10 miles. The Hoel servants hinted at a love affair between Dr. Hough and Elizabeth during the proceedings. However, Dr. Hough was exonerated and he continued his career. No scandal ever seems to have sullied the good reputation of Elizabeth Hunt Hoel. A sympathetic community understood her nightmare of domestic violence even though they also tried to protect the reputation of a Civil War hero. . . ."
