    • A Portrait and Biographical Record of Mercer and Van Wert Counties, Ohio, A. W. Bowen & Co., 1896

      Lewis Postle Lisle, M.D., one of the most prominent and successful physicians of Celina, was born at Columbus, Ohio, March 23, 1853. He is a son of William and Sarah (McWilliams) Lisle, both of whom were born near Columbus, Ohio, the former in 1811, the latter in 1825. The Lisles are of Scotch descent, and the McWilliams family of Irish ancestry. William Lisle, having followed farming most of his life, is now retired and is the oldest man in Prairie Township, Franklin County, Ohio. His father, Washington [Note: error James] Lisle, was one of the pioneers of that county, emigrating from Kentucky to Ohio at a very early day. William Lisle has lived on the farm on which he was reared for the past fifty-four years. He has been a very active, industrious and successful farmer, and now owns a tract of of 600 acres of land in Franklin County, Ohio, six miles from the City of Columbus, Ohio. He also owns a fifty acre tract of woods which has never been culled and is in its primeaval condition.

      Dr. Lisle was reared on his father's farm up to the age of 16. The education he received in the district schools was previous to this time, and he then went to Lebanon, where he attended school for three terms. For four terms he was then engaged in teaching school, and afterwards returned to Lebanon, where he graduated in the scientific courses in 1874. After graduating from the National Normal university he began reading medicine with Dr. Hamilton of Columbus, as his preceptor, remaining under the instruction of Dr. Hamilton two and a half years, doing considerable office work during the last half year. In 1876 he graduated from the Cincinnati College of Medicine and Surgery with high honors, being one of the five that received the mark of 100% on their examination. Almost immediately after his graduation, he located in Florence, Marion County, Kansas, and there practised his profession for three years. In 1879 he returned to Ohio, locating in Columbus, and practising there until 1881, when he went to New York, and entered the Bellevue Hospital Medical College, graduating from that institution in 1883. He alo took private instruction under Dr. Jospeh E. Bryant of Bellevue Hospital Medical College, in operative surgery, and in surgical dressing, and also private instructions of Profs. A. A. Smith and W. H. Katzenboch of Bellevue, in physical diagnosis, and also private instruction under Prof. Ogden Doremus of Bellevue in urinary analysis and examinations for poisoning. Returning to Columbus, Dr. Lisle resumed his practise there which he continued until November 4, 1891, when he came to Celina, where he has since practised in connection with his wife. Dr. Lisle is a member of the Ohio State Medical Association, and also of the Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias.

      Dr. Lisle is one of a family of four sons and two daughters. J. M. Lisle is a practising physician of Columbus; W. J. Lisle is a practising physician of Pataskala, Licking County, Ohio, and has served two terms in the Ohio legislature; George the youngest son is now at home in Franklin County, and is a successful and thrifty farmer. Dr. and Mrs. Lisle were married June 24, 1886, and a brief sketch of Mrs. Lisle follows:

      Mrs. Lida C. Lisle, of Celina, Ohio, was born in London, Madison County, Ohio, April 11, 1865. Her preliminary education was obtained in the public schools of London, and she completed her literary education in Otterbein university graduating from this institution with the class of 1884, with the degree of bachelor of science. Her professional education was obtained in Starling Medical College at Columbus, Ohio, she graduating from that institution in 1888, with the degree of M.D. Previous to entering the latter mentioned college she read medicine with her husband about two years.

      Immediately after graduation she began the practise of medicine in connection with her husband, and has ever since continued with unusual success. Mrs. Lisle is a daughter of Rev. Levi Cunningham, deceased, who was a minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He was born in Washington County, Ohio, in 1812, and his death occurred in Westerville, Ohio, in 1885. His widow, who now resides in Westerville, bore the maiden name of Isabel Chetely, and was born near Belfast, Ireland, in 1825, coming to America in 1835, with her parents. They located in Philadelphia, where they both died a few years after arriving in this country. When a young woman she removed to Virginia, where she lived until she was married to Rev. Mr. Cunningham, who was a member of the Ohio Methodist conference for forty years.

      Mrs. Lisle is the mother of one child, William Stanley, who was born Aug. 11, 1889. She is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, is fine shcolar outside of her profession, and taught school two terms, one in Kansas and one in Ohio, previous to her marriage. She is also a thorough musician, having graduated in the musical department of Otterbein university. Mrs. Lisle is thus a lady of much more than ordinary intellectual ability and of rare accomplishments, and is an ornament to society as well as a most conscientious woman, wife, and mother.
