A graduate of the Highland Park College in the department of pharmacy, he has been engaged in the drug business since his graduation and now, with W. S. Peterson of Missouri Valley, has one of the best drug stores in that city. He is a man of unusual energy and ability, and is now serving in an efficient manner as President of the Commercial Club of his home city. LeRoy Doty, son of Wilson and Winnie (Jones) Doty, was born near Beebeetown, Harrison County, Iowa, January 17, 1878. His father was born in Indiana and his mother in Iowa. His father came to Iowa about sixty years ago and to Harrison County in 1866, locating at Modale, and lived there until about 1875, when he located near Beebeetown. A few years ago he retired from the farm and moved to Missouri Valley, where he has since made his home. Six children were born to Wilson Doty and wife: Oscar, a farmer of Missouri Valley; Mrs. Effie Brown of Missouri Valley; Earl, a farmer of this county; and Arthur, who is still living with his parents. LeRoy Doty was born and reared on his father's farm in this county and received a good, common school education. He remained on the farm until he was 24 years of age and then became a student in Highland Park College at Des Moines. He was graduated from the school of pharmacy in the spring of 1902 and spent the following year in the drug business at Council Bluffs. He then took charge of a drug store in Logan, Iowa, where he remained for three years. In July 1906 he embarked in business for himself in Missouri Valley with W. S. Peterson, the firm purchasing the drugstore of Roberts & Shafer. They have a well equipped store and carry a full line of drugs and druggists' sundries and have a full share of the patronage of Missouri Valley and vicinity. Mr. Doty was married May 18, 1904, to Hattie Longman, of Logan, and to this union two children have been born, Wilson and Dorothy. Mr. Doty and his wife are active members of the Christian Church and Mr. Doty is a member of the official board of this denomination, a position which he has held for several years. He was treasurer of the building committee when the present new edifice was erected. He is a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, the Modern Woodmen of America, the Yeomen and the Homesteaders. He is clerk of the lodge of Woodmen at Missouri Valley. As president of the Commercial Club of the city, Mr. Doty has taken an active part in boosting the city, and is rightly regarded as one of the most progressive citizens of the community. He is a Republican but has never cared to take an active part in the political matters, preferring to devote all of his time and attention to his business affairs. source of biographical sketch: “History of Harrison County, Iowa: its people, industries and institutions, with biographical sketches of representative citizens and genealogical records of many of the old families”, 1915, pages 773 - 774 Contributor: Genie Nuts 1976 (47118364)
