IOWA
ITS HISTORY AND TRADITION
VOLUME III
1804-1926

S. E. SIBLEY

Dr. Samuel E. Sibley, now engaged in the practice of medicine in Sioux City,
is a native of Iowa. He was born on a farm in Story county, December 1,
1869. His parents, Lyman W. and Mary A. (Hammond) Sibley, were both natives of the Empire state and came to Iowa in 1864. The Doctor's paternal ancestors came from England and settled in Massachusetts in the year 1628, and his mother's people, also English, took up their abode in Pennsylvania nearly sixty years later.

When Dr. Sibley was still a small boy his parents moved to a farm near
LeMars, and to the public schools of Plymouth county he is indebted for his early
educational opportunities. After graduating from the high school at LeMars
and a year or more spent in college work, he matriculated as a medical student
at the University of Iowa, from which he received his degree in 1893.

On leaving the university Dr. Sibley opened an office in Moville, where for
several years he was associated in practice with Dr. W. H. Dewey. Leaving
Moville Dr. Sibley in 1904 entered into partnership with Dr. R. E. Conniff in
Sioux City-a relationship that lasted several years-and limited his practice to
surgery and consultation. He is a member of the Woodbury County Medical
Society, Iowa State Medical Society, American Medical Association and others.

On the 31st of March, 1897, in Moville, Dr. Sibley wedded Miss Martha B.
Heathcote, a daughter of the late Mathew Heathcote, and to them has been born a son, Edward Heathcote, whose birth occurred on the 17th of April, 1910.

Dr. and Mrs. Sibley attend the Congregational church and he is a Mason, a
Shriner, an Odd Fellow and an Elk. He is a republican with no aspirations for
public office. A booster for Sioux City, as shown by his membership in such
organizations as the Chamber of Commerce, the Country Club and Sioux City
Boat Club, he enjoys an excellent practice in his chosen field and has many
friends.
