Source: History Morris County New Jersey, Volume II, Lewis Publishing Co., 1914 Anna L. ALLABEN, M.D., a well-known and successful physician of Morristown, was born in Norwich, New York, September 22, 1858. Her father was Nelson McNITT, a farmer of Norwich, Chenango county, New York, who died in 1901 at the age of sixty-four years. Her mother, Margaret (ELLIOTT) McNITT, was a native of North Newcastle, England, who died December 15, 191, at the age of eighty-one years. When Dr. ALLABEN was ten years old her parents moved to Morris, New York, and here she acquired her academic education. Later she entered the Woman's Homeopathic College and Hospital of New York and after completing her course with credit, she was graduated in 1894 with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. For a time she worked under Dr. William Todd Helmuth, of New York, but in the latter part of 1895 she came to Morristown and established herself in practice, continuing here ever since. She makes a specialty of the diseases of women and children, and has shown by the large measure of success she has attained the high order of her natural gifts for the calling and her skill and excellent training. She enjoys a high position in the respect and confidence of the community, a place entirely due to her own talents, sincerity, and devotion to the highest standards of her profession. She is a member of the New Jersey State Homeopathic Medical Society. She married at Morris, New York, in 1883, James R. ALLABEN Jr., son of the late Hon. James R. ALLABEN, of Brooklyn, New York, who died in 1893. Her husband, James R. ALLABEN Jr., died February 15 1889, leaving her with one child, Nelson James, born October 7 1886. He was sent to the schools of Morristown, after receiving his earlier training in those of Morris, New York. He later went to Blair Hall at Blairstown, New York. He is now in business with Manning, Maxwell & Moore, Manufacturing Company, of 81-85 Liberty street, New York, with which firm he has been ever since he was twenty-one years old. He married Anna B. BABBITT, of Newark, New Jersey. |
