The mother, Martha (Davidson) Hulery, died when our subject was about twelve years of age, at Dayton, Yamhill county, Oregon. The family located on a donation claim near Harrisburg, Linn county, Oregon, and later moved to Portland. Here the father worked at the cooper trade and, also, conducted a livery stable. Frank L., our subject, was reared in Portland until ten years of age. Thence he accompanied the family to Dayton, where he continued his education in the public schools which had been commenced in Portland. After his mother's death he lived with Captain W. S.
