CALMES, Paul E.
PAUL E. CALMES, M.D., was born in Clark County, Kentucky, May 7, 1841. His
father, John W. Calmes, a native of Woodford County, Kentucky, married Miss Ann
Evans, originally of Clark County. They reared five
children, Paul E. being the oldest. When he was sixteen years old the family
moved to Lexington, Missouri, and in the fall of 1859 he began the study of
medicine with Dr. Alexander of that city. This he continued until the spring of
1861, when he enlisted in Captain Wilson's company of Missouri State Guard. He
served until the disbandment of the company, and then he returned to Lexington
and resumed his studies under Dr. William Ruffin until the fall of 1864, when he
went south as a soldier under General Price. In the winters of 1866-7 and 1867-8
he attended lectures at Louisville, and was graduated in the latter year. After
practicing in Jackson, Lafayette and Bates Counties until December, 1869, he
came to Appleton City, where he has since been a prominent and successful
practitioner. Dr. Calmes was married October 24, 1872, to Miss Fannie Churchill,
of Kentucky. He is a member of the I.O.O.F. fraternity. The doctor attended the
Louisville Medical College during terms of 1877-8, and received a diploma from
this institution in the spring of 1878.
