ALEXANDER, JOSEPH H.
Joseph H. Alexander, M. D. is one of the able and prominent medical practitioners of Meridian. This being his birthplace the formality of an introduction is unnecessary. He has been well and favorably known from his childhood, and enjoys the confidence and respect of the entire community, not only as a gentleman but also as a thorough and well-read physician of the regular profession.
The Doctor was born on the 22d of July, 1870, and in his native city was reared and educated. He is a son of Thomas C. and Catherine (Little) Alexander, highly respected citizens of Meridian.
By his father's second union there are seven children, of whom the Doctor is the eldest. Prior to beginning his professional studies he had followed the printing business, which he began when only fourteen years of age, and at one time was foreman on the Alliance Sun. This journal ceased publication several years ago and soon afterward our subject entered the office of Dr. J. J. Limpkin. Dr. Alexander took a course of lectures at the Texas Medical College, at Galveston, and was graduated at the Memphis Hospital and Medical College in 1891. Since his return to Meridian he has engaged in the practice of his profession, and also carries on the drug business with his brother. He is now enjoying a large and lucrative practice, and may well be numbered among the rising young physicians of the state.
In Bosque county, on the 20th of July, 1892, was performed a wedding ceremony which united the destinies of Dr. Alexander and Miss Belle Limpkin, a native of South Carolina, and their union has been blessed by the birth of two children,—Elmo and Kathline.
