JOHNSTON, ORANGE ANDREW, M.D.

 

 

 

Orange Andrew Johnston, M. D.., secretary of the Hancock county medical society, is one of those able and successful physicians and surgeons who are aiding in maintaining the high prestige of the profession in Mississippi, and he is actively engaged in practice at Pickayune, as a member of the firm of Johnston & Harper.  The doctor was born in Hebron, Lawrence county, Miss., July 24, 1875, being a son of George W. And Sudie M. (Eaton) Johnston, the former of whom was born at Quitman, Clarke county, this State; and the latter at Taylorsville, Smith county.  They still retain their residence in Lawrence county, the father being one of the representative citizens of said county, which he represented in the State legislature for two terms, and also served two terms as a member of the board of supervisors of his county.  Dr. Johnston made proper utilization of the afforded in the public schools of his native county, where he completed a course in the high school of Hebron, after which he took up the study of medicine under private preceptors, making rapid advancement in his technical knowledge and being admitted to practice upon examination before the State board of medical examiners.  After being successfully engaged in practice for a few years he made further and distinctive reinforcement of his powers as a physician and surgeon by entering the Memphis Hospital medical college in Memphis, Tenn., in which admirably equipped institution he was graduated, with the degree of Doctor of Medicine, as a member of the class of 1900.  In 1895 he initiated the practice of his profession by locating in Hooker, Lawrence county, where he remained until 1899, when he came to Pickayune, Hancock county, where he entered into a professional partnership with Dr. John A. Harper, under the firm name of Johnston & Harper, and they have since been successfully associated in general practice at this point, while their supporting patronage  is widely extended through out this section and is of a representative order.  Dr. Johnston is incumbent f the position of health officer of the county and is also local surgeon for the New Orleans & North-Eastern railroad, while he is identified with the Mississippi State medical society and the Hancock county medical society, of which latter he is the popular and efficient secretary at the time of this writing.  He is a director of the Bank of Pickayune, of which he was one of the incorporators, as was he also of the Pickayune Drug
Company, which has a finely appointed establishment, the company haveing erected a substantial new building 30x45 feet in dimensions, for the accomodation of the business.  In a fraternal way we find the doctor affiliated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Woodmen of the World.  On May 2,1897, Dr.Johnston was married to Miss Balzora Buckley, who was born and reared in Lawrence county, being a daughter of S. C. And Lona (Culpepper) Buckley, of Hooker.  Three children represent the offspring of this union - Robert Osborne, William Buckley, and Orange Alton.  (Copied from MISSISSIPPI, Vol III, Dunbar Rowland, pp 424-5)
