    Also Known As Frank 
    Stories and Notes Frank Hamilton and wife went up to Washington from Nevada as the lure of Gold attacted them and for $1000 purchased 750 acres at the mouth of the Baker River on what is now the Ovenell's Heritage Inn. (I have been there and it is a beautiful place). They bought the land from a man who was working the gold fields. The land attracted them as it also was next door to Theodore Sunter and his mother. Theodore was Frank's wife's half brother and his mother also her mother. Most likely this is the reason Frank's mother moved up to live with them too, they had more in common. Soon the goldfields died out and Frank took up farming. He was a hard worker, but lost his farm due to the major flood which destroyed his farm. He moved to Sedro Wooley to live out the rest of his life.
