Biographical History
Frank S. Bell was the son of Sarah A. Wilder Bell and Samuel R. Bell, a tobacco farmer in Hadley, Massachusetts. In 1890 he went West, first to Clinton, Iowa, then to Omaha, Nebraska, and then to Seattle, Washington by 1892. He returned East for five years, living in Hadley, and in Brooklyn, New York in 1895, but in 1898 he went back to the Northwest. After spending a year in Alaska and the Yukon in 1900-1901, followed by a shorter stint there the summer of 1903, he settled in Seattle. In 1904 he married Lora Parkhurst, and between 1905 and 1913 they had three sons: Charles, Frank, and James. Despite hopes that his parents and sister Bess, who had married Clarence Hawkes in 1900, would join him in Washington, Frank and Lora Bell may have sold their home in Seattle and moved to Hadley, Massachusetts in 1913.
