Frank resided at 766 Frost Ave. +1930-1950+, and was the last known correspondent. He immigrated to Canada with his mother and siblings in 1903, working in 1911 at the age of 15 at a department store in Toronto as an electrician. He immigrated to the U.S. by himself via Buffalo in Jan. 1913 with intent to live in Rochester, and resided at 78 Orting Weis St., Roch., in 1920. Frank's mother Elizabeth, as well as he and his siblings were registered as Anglican in Toronto in 1911. By 1921, Elizabeth had moved in with her daughter Florence Lillian Perrott Martin (b. 1881) and family, and evidently joined their Baptist church.
John C. Moore Corp. aka "City Book Bindery" was his employer in 1941, at 69-71 Stone St. As per [https://mycompanies.fandom.com/wiki/John_C._Moore_Corporation MyCompanies.fandom.com], the corporation was founded by John C. Moore in 1839, incorporated in 1904, folded in 1992, and dissolved as a corporate entity in 1998. Its primary industry was bookbinding, index systems and business forms, and was always based in Rochester. Frank's employment in a 1920 census was as a printer in a factory, perhaps the same company.
