Dr. Thomas S. Nagle, prominent physician and druggist at Allentown for nearly forty years, was the son of Charles and Maria Kuntz Nagle, of Allen township, in Northampton county, and there he was born Jan. 29, 1847. He received his preliminary education in the local schools and the preparatory academy at Albany, NY., after which he pursued a general course of medical studies in Long Island College, form which he was graduated in 1870. He then began the practice of his profession at Kreidersville, and continued there until 1876, when he removed to Allentown and associated with Dr. E. J. Danowsky, No. 733 Hamilton, in conducting a drug store, first as a clerk for at time and afterward as a partner until Dr. Danowsky's decease, when he became the sole owner of the business. The store was removed to No. 708 and there he conducted it in a successful manner until he died Aug. 28, 1914. He was prominently identified with the American Medical Association and the Lehigh County Medical Society.
