This is Dr. Portia McKnight Lubchenco, born in 1887 in
the Smallwood Community, now Portia Road.
Portia was the first female medical
student to graduate from North Carolina Medical College in
Charlotte in 1912.
After marrying Mr. Alexis Lubchenco and a harrowing
trip from Russia back to Blythewood in 1917, she started
a very busy medical practice and was said to have
easily delivered 100 babies a year at their homes.
Due to the destructive boll weevil in the 1930's
the family moved to Colorado where Dr. Lubchenco had a very
successful medical practice and was given many awards.
In 1953
Portia McKnight Lubchenco
became the
Mother of the Year
in Colorado.
