  JOHN S. BONEBREAK, M. D., of Martinsburg, Pa., was born there, April 19, 1872, 
a son of Dr. D. W. and Mary (Shubert) Bonebreak.  The father came of one of the 
pioneer families of Martinsburg, where he practiced medicine from 1864 until the 
time of his death in 1895.  He was widely known professionally throughout the 
county.  John S. Bonebreak attended the public schools of Martinsburg and the 
Juniata Institute, after which he began his medical studies under his father's 
able preceptorship.  He then completed his work at the Pittsburgh Medical 
College, receiving the degree of doctor of medicine in 1896.  He returned to 
Martinsburg to take the place of his father, who had died the previous year, and 
has since been engaged in a general practice there.  He is a member of the 
American Medical Association and the Pennsylvania State and Blair County Medical 
Societies.  He and his wife attend the Reformed Church, and in fraternal 
circles, Doctor Bonebreak is a member of the Martinsburg Encampment of Odd 
Fellows and the Roaring Spring Lodge of Masons.  He married Catherine Keim, 
daughter of Nelson Keim, of Martinsburg, and to them were born four children: 
Glenn, John K., Kenneth, and Paul, who is deceased.
