Persons Family: Dr. John Reed Persons

The next child of Rev. Elbert E. Persons is Dr. John Reed Persons.  He was born April 15, 1876 in Norwalk, Huron Co., Ohio and died August 23, 1924 in Seattle, Washington.

Dr. J. R. Persons went to Northwestern University Medical School and to Chicago Medical College.  He practiced medicine in Oak Harbor, Kirkland, and Seattle, Washington. 

In 1900 J. R. Persons was living in Chicago, Illinois.  

June 30, 1909 John R. Persons married Imo A. Monroe (born 1877 Ames, Iowa; died 1960 Los Angeles, California). 

On September 12, 1918 he filled out a WWI draft registration card which gave his build as short and slender with gray eyes and gray hair.

And that's all, I have not found any record of a child of J. R. Persons or any records beyond this.
