Excerpt from Frances Stuart Parker: Reminiscences and Letters
Frank Stuart, only daughter of Calvin Stuart and Dorothy Furbush, was born in Boston, April 19, 1847.

Quiet and philosophical, yet full Of dry wit and with a fund of mim icry and an appreciation of the dramatic, Mr. Stuart was de voted to his home and eminently adapted to make it happy.
