ARTHUR C. ROLL, M. D., is one of
the native sons of the Buckeye State, is a leading young medical
practitioner of Toledo, who bids fair to soon acquire more than a
local reputation. He is a graduate of the Pulte Medical
College of Cincinnati, where he completed the course and received
his degree Mar. 12, 1889, the same spring opening an office for
general family practice in this place. He belongs to the Ohio
State Homeopathy Society, and to the Northwestern Ohio Homeopathic
Association. His services are employed as medical examiner for
the Equitable Life Insurance Company of Des Moines, Iowa, the
Scottish Rites, Knights Templar and Master Masons' aid Association;
and he is also a member of the medical staff of the Toledo Hospital.
John W. Roll, the father of the Doctor, was born in
Butler County, Ohio, and was a manufacturer of iron machinery and
farm implements. His father was Dr. Silas Roll,
who was of Holland descent. Members of the family came from
Holland descent. Members of the family came from Holland to
settle in the United States as early as 1650, and many of the
descendants have been noted in the affairs of this country. John
W. Roll, on arriving at mature years,
married Martha J. Carr, who was born in Ohio.
They became the parents of two children, Arthur and
Martha. The latter married H. D.
Brosier, and resides in Butler County, Ohio.
Dr. A. C. Roll was born near Hamilton, Butler
County, this state, Mar. 2, 1868, and was given a good common-school
education, after which he pursued his higher studies in the Miami
University at Oxford, Ohio. His first steps in the direction
of his future career were taken under the instruction of Dr.
James H. Roll, of Hamilton, and later he
studied with Dr. William Z. Kumber, also of
Hamilton. Then, as before mentioned, he entered the medical
college at Cincinnati, from which he was duly graduated.
The pleasant home of Dr. Roll is at No. 1027 Erie
Street. It is presided over with grace and womanly
courtesy by his cultured wife, who was formerly Miss Marilla
Elliott, of Hamilton, this state. Their marriage was
celebrated Dec. 20, 1892, and they are the parents of one daughter,
Bernice Lucile. Mrs. Roll is
a daughter of James M. Elliott, a well known and
prominent citizen of Hamilton. Fraternally our subject belongs
to the Royal Arcanum and to the Sons of Veterans. Source:
