FREDERICK WEBBER ASHE, ESQ., was the fifth son of the late Commander Edward D. Ashe, R.N and Marcella Chaplin (Percy )Ashe . He was educated in Quebec and at Trinity College School, Port Hope, Ontario. In 1882 he entered the service of the Union Bank of Canada in Quebec, was appointed Accountant at Winnipeg in 1888, Manager at Hastings in 1895, and was subsequently Manager at several other important branches. In 1903 he became Manager in Montreal, and in 1907 was promoted to the position of Eastern Superintendent, having charge of all the branches from the great lakes to the Atlantic. When the Union Bank of Canada opened a branch in London in 1911 Mr. Ashe was made a member of the London Committee, and the London office was placed in his charge.

Mr. Ashe's opinion on Canadian finance is recognised by bankers as being sound, not only by London, but also by Paris, Berlin and other large financial centres.

Mr. Ashe married, in 1898, Belle Haven Greene, only daughter of the late George A. Greene, Esq., of Boston, Massachusetts. He resides at Englemere Hill, Ascot, and is a member of the City Carlton (London) and the Travellers (Paris) Clubs.
