This is from: Genealogical and Personal History of the Upper Monongahela Valley, Vol. 2, by James Morton Callahan:
Dr. Calvin Merryman Kessler, son of Peter and Kate Merryman Kessler, was born at Butler, Maryland, January 27, 1880. He attended the local schools of his native county, entered Maryland Medical College at Baltimore, Maryland in 1906, coming to Gassaway, Paxton county, West Virginia, where he remained until 1910, then relocated at Clarksburg his offices, being situated in the new Gore building. Politically he votes the Democratic ticket, and is a member of Knights of Pythias fraternal and the Elks order. While the family are of the Baptist church faith, he and his family usually attend the Methodist church at Clarksburg. The practice that he has built up in two years at Clarksburg is indeed remarkable, and only shows that the modern medical education is far superior to that of the long ago years.
He married, at Clarksburg, August 17, 1909, Caroline Cole, a native of Clarksburg, West Virginia, daughter of William L. Cole, retired. He was an extensive coal dealer, and is a native of Washington, D.C., coming to Harrison county, West Virginia, when a mere lad. He worked at the butcher's trade for the union army during the civil war. He married Mary A. Peck, a native of Clarksburg and is still living.
