"SAMUEL PUSEY NICKLE, M. D., of Clifton Heights, Pennsylvania, was born in Port Deposit, Cecil county, Maryland, September 30, 1865, and he is the son of William Wesley and Eliza (Pennock) Nickle. William Wesley Nickle is a son of William and Mary (Harris) Nickle, while Eliza (Pennock) Nickle is
the daughter of Solomon and Elizabeth (Evans) Pennock.
"William and Eliza Nickle had a family of four children as follows: Joanna, who died at the age of twelve years; Clara, who married Albert Boardman Earle (a full account of the Earle family is given in the sketch of A. B. Earle, elsewhere in this work); Pennock, who died at the age of two years, and Samuel Pusey, the subject of this sketch, who married Estella Mershom, of Philadelphia, a daughter of George B. and Sarah (Millis) Mershon. Dr. and Mrs. Nickle have no family.
"In early life, Dr. Nickle attended the public schools, after which he continued his studies at the West Nottingham Academy, and finished his preparatory work for college. After leaving the academy, he read medicine with Dr. Bromwell, of Port Deposit, and in 1884 entered the University of Pennsylvania. In 1887 he was graduated from that institution and the same year located in Primos, where he began the practice of his profession, remaining in that locality until 1893, when he removed to Clifton Heights,
and in partnership with Dr. S. P. Bartleson, conducted a large practice. However, after some time, he returned to Primos, where he remained six months, and then again located at Clifton Heights and has made that town his home ever since. He was for some time president of the Clifton Heights
Board of Health, resigning in 1900. In politics he is an independent Republican, and is also a member of state and county medical societies."
