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.
