Frank was the son of Jacob Kline and Laura Smith (both born in New York). He was born in Virginia City. His occupation was a hoist engineer in mining. He died in St. Mary's Hospital in Reno of an unknown underlying condition that resulted in glomerulonephritis and pulmonary edema. He was survived by his wife, Lena.

In 1880, his parents live in Virginia City, Nevada, where his father is a harness marker. Jacob Kline, 35, born New York (both parents born Germany); Laura, 37, New York (Saxony/Saxony); Amelia, 10, New York (New York/New York); Lillie, 5, New York; Jacob, 2, Nevada. (The family therefore came to Nevada sometime between 1875 and 1878.)

Frank married Lena Marks 2 February 1902 in Gold Hill. (Western States Marriage Index.)

In 1910 Frank and Lena lived in Virginia City, where Frank was a miner in a quartz mine. In 1918, when he registered for the WWI draft, they were living in Virginia City, and Frank was a stationary engineer for the Union Shaft Co. In 1920, still in Virginia City, Frank was a mine engineer. They had a daughter, Amelia, aged 9, born Nevada, and a foster child, Miriam Kennedy, aged 18. [According to clipping about Lena's life posted on her memorial, Miriam be the same as Mrs. Miriam Nagel (as of 1964), Lena's niece.]

YOB on death cert is 1884; memorial uses the year on gravestone, 1883.

[NB: There is no Jewish section at Silver Terrace cemeteries; there is a separate Jewish cemetery about 1/4 mile away. All but one non-Jewish-sounding gravestone has been destroyed.]
[Rickards fiction: Frank Kline
