Biography
The son of John Reep and Henrietta (Holcomb) Reep, Frank was born in Inskip, Tennessee in 1894,[citation needed] residing with his family in Civil District 2 of Knox County.[1] By 1910, his family had migrated west, settling in Alpaugh, California.[2] His siblings included:
Harriet Reep (1879-1879)
Mary H. "Mamie" Reep (1883-1976)
Wilford S. Reep (1886-1962)
His family migrated west to California and Frank Reep married there, marrying Muriel (Billing) Broman in Tulare County on September 24, 1914;[citation needed] they had one son together). Frank Reep registered for the draft in Alpaugh on June 5, 1917, stating that he was married and worked as a merchant, also providing telephone service, in Alpaugh. He was described as a man of medium height and build with dark brown hair and light grey eyes.[3]
In January of 1920, the young family lived with John's sister, Henrietta "Mamie" (Reep) Settles and her family, which included John's widowed mother, Henrietta, in Alpaugh.[4] Frank did not work at the time and was already ill; the household included a live-in nurse. A few weeks later, Frank was admitted to the Tulare and Kings Joint Tubercular Hospital in Springsville, California, and he was enumerated on the census there later in January.[5]
