III. Emeline, daughter of [Chauncey Horton and Amanda Chaffee], born in Ashford, Ct., 22 Sept., 1829; married in Stockbridge, Madison Co., N. Y., 8 March, 1854, to the Rev. Giles Butler Cleveland, born 12 Aug., 1825, in Durham, Greene County, N. Y. They have one son, viz.:
Arthur Horton Cleveland, born in the city of Philadelphia, 10 Feb., 1865.
Mrs. Cleveland graduated from the Ladies' Department of Oberlin College (Ohio), in 1853, and from the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania, in 1855. She was elected to the Chair of Anatomy in that College, in 1857, which she held until 1862, when she was transferred to the Chair of Obstetrics. This she still occupies, and is also a member of the Board of Corporators.
In 1860, at the solicitation of a number of philanthropic ladies of Philadelphia, who had in view the establishment of a Hospital for Women and Children, Professor Cleveland went abroad for medical study, and to make herself acquainted with the arrangements and management of hospitals. She entered the School of Obstetrics in connection with the Maternite of Paris, and after receiving the diploma of that institution, found ready access to the wards and lecture-rooms of other hospitals, and was allowed free inspection of their administrative departments.
On her return, she was chosen Resident Physician of the then chartered Woman's Hospital of Philadelphia, which position she continued to fill for seven years. She has been one of the Managers of the Hospital from its organization, and a member of the Consulting Board since her retirement from the office of Resident Physician.
Professor Cleveland has made a number of important surgical operations, and is the first woman, so far as known, who ever performed ovariotomy. In her second case, a tumor, weighing fifty pounds, was successfully removed, the patient making a good recovery.
