Frank Kellogg STRAHORN

1869 - 1898  (29 years)

• Name	Frank Kellogg STRAHORN
  Birth	21 Jan 1869	Washington, Pettis, Missouri
  Gender	Male
  Death	28 Aug 1898	Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California
  Burial	Rosedale Cemetery, Los Angeles, California, Section O, Lot 74, #3SW
  Notes	Thomas, his second wife Rebecca Jane, and their son Frank Kellog Strahorn are all buried in the same plot in Rosedale Cemetery, just west of downtown Los Angeles. I suspect the headstone was installed by his son Robert Edmund Strahorn after he became wealthy, since Thomas was a man of modest means. A much more modest stone can be seen in front of the larger one, which reads, "T.F.S. Husband." No headstone is in evidence for Frank. Recorded in Voter Registrations as 5' 9 1/2" tall.
