Clark, Robert Carlton, Ph.D. "History of the Willamette Valley Oregon." Vol. 3. Chicago: Chapman Publishing Company, 1927. p. 122. EDWARD SCHOOR, M. D. Dr. Edward School, an able exponent of the homeopathic school of medicine, has practiced successfully in Hubbard for a period of sixteen years and is representative of a family of physicians. He was born in 1871 and is a native of Illinois. His father, Dr. Jacob Schoor, was graduated from the Universities of Leipzig and Frieburg and engaged in the practice of medicine in Germany for six years. He then came to the United States and for twenty-two years followed his profession in Ottawa, Illinois. On the expiration of that period he located in Kansas City, Missouri, becoming recognized as one of its leading physicians, and there passed away in 1909. His first wife, Christina (Jenny) Schoor, was a native of Germany and died in 1873. She was the mother of Dr. Edward Schoor and had a family of eight children, four sons and four daughters. By the father's second union there were three children, two sons and a daughter. Albert H., one of the sons, was a medical practitioner and has passed away. Two uncles and a cousin of Dr. Edward Schoor are physicians of prominence and the family has ever adhered to the highest standards of the profession. Dr. Edward Schoor completed his public school education in Kansas City and attended the Homeopathic Medical College of that place. He was graduated with the class of 1891 and began his professional career in Kansas City, forming a partnership with his father, with whom he was associated for nine years. The son maintained an office in Kansas City for twenty-two years and established a large practice, after which he located in Portland, Oregon, spending six months in that city. After passing the state examination he moved to Hubbard and now has a large list of patients. He specializes in the diseases of women and children and in this branch of medical science is a recognized expert. In Kansas City, in 1894, Dr. Schoor was married to Miss Ida Gloyd, a native of Missouri and a daughter of J. C. and Mary (Pulliam) Gloyd, who have lived on a farm near Kansas City since the close of the Civil war. By his first union the Doctor had a son, Karl E., who died at Hubbard in 1913, when a young man of twenty. Dr. Schoor was married at Hubbard, in 1913, to Miss Ella Doleman, who lost her parents in infancy. She was a graduate nurse and located at Portland in 1912. She acquired marked skill in the treatment of surgical cases and was of great assistance to her husband in his work. In 1920 she was killed in an automobile accident, in which the Doctor was badly injured, being helpless for five months. His third union was with Miss Lenore Walker, to whom he was married in Hubbard in 1922, and they have one child, Mildred L., who was born August 11, 1924. Mrs., Schoor was born in Atlantic, Iowa, and came to Marion county in 1918. Dr. Schoor has held all of the chairs in the blue lodge of Masons and belongs to Woodburn Chapter, No. 29, R. A. M. He is a member of the Medical Societies of Polk, Yamhill and Marion Counties, the Oregon State Medical Society, the American Medical Association, and the American Institute of Homeopathy. An earnest student, he keeps in close touch with the progress of the profession and has won the esteem of his fellow practitioners and the general public as well, for his life has been upright and useful. ******************* Submitted to the Oregon Bios.
