Physician and Surgeon, of Portland, was born at Morristown,Belmont County, Ohio, September 4, 1834. His father, Samuel Dellenbaugh, still a prominent physician of Buffalo, New York, was a native of Switzerland. His mother, Elizabeth (Smith) Dellenbaugh, was born in Virginia, and is still living at Buffalo. Charles C., with his parents, left Morristown in 1848, and resided in various places, until they settled in Buffalo, in 1854. From his father he inherited a taste for the medical profession which, in his early manhood, he decided to adopt. He had received a fair education in the common schools, principally in Alleghany City; and, in 1855, entered the Medical Department of the University of Michigan. After studying there one year, he returned to Buffalo, and continued his studies in Buffalo University during the year 1856. In 1857 he was honored by an appointment of House Physician in the Erie County Hospital, which he resigned after one year. He graduated in medicine and surgery in 1859 and 1860. He commenced practice at Alliance, Ohio, where he remained but a short time. He then went to Buffalo, New York, where he remained until 1863. In that year he decided to carry out a long formed resolution to seek his fortune in the West. After trying in succession, Detroit and Saginaw, he finally settled in Westphalia, Clinton County, Michigan, where he practiced successfully thirteen years. He removed to Portland, Ionia County, in 1876. In Westphalia, he was elected Supervisor, and held the position one term. He is a member of the State Medical Society and also of the Clinton County Medical Society. He has been a Mason since 1866, and has passed through the blue lodge. His professional duties, however, debar him from taking a very active part in the 29 organization. Although not actually connected with the Church, he has strong religious convictions. Family ties incline him to Presbyterianism, although he has a seat in the Baptist Church.
Mr. Dellenbaugh was married, October 4, 1866, to Mary M. Hill, daughter of George Hill, deceased, of Portland, who was a man of special prominence in Masonic circles. They have four surviving children. Helen L (Nov 1864), Jenny, (Oct 1867), Mary F (April 1878), Albert G (Mar 1876).
As a physician and surgeon, Mr. Dellenbaugh ranks among the first in the profession. His practice is not confined to Portland, but extends over a large part of the adjoining counties. He is a man of eminent social characteristics, and is much appreciated for his general attainments and reliable judgment, He is, at present, a member of the village council.
