Biographical History

Charles K. Mills was born in Falls of Schuylkill, Pennsylvania, on December 4, 1845. He attended Central High School, although a year of service in the Civil War delayed his graduation until 1864. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's Medical School in 1869 and received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the same university in 1871. He was married to Clara Elizabeth Peale in 1873, and with her had four children. Dr. Mills was a preeminent neurologist who did much to advance his field in Philadelphia, having established the nervous ward of the Philadelphia General Hospital in 1877 and founded the Philadelphia Neurological Society in 1884. He was instrumental in the reform of the city's General Hospital and he advocated improved health and sanitary conditions in many public sectors. Dr. Mills was a professor emeritus of neurology at the University of Pennsylvania, where he taught from 1877 to 1915, and a member of and frequent lecturer to many medical organizations. In 1923, he was elected president of the American Neurological Society. Dr. Mills died May 28, 1931, at the age of eighty-five.
