People named Frank Hurtig

Frank was born and worked on the family farm in Emerald Twp. He was born Francis but by 1900 he was known only as Frank. One of the many jobs on a farm was butchering and Frank in his 40's decided to move to a hotel on Perry St. Paulding, Ohio and open a meat market in town. He was in an auto accident on July 2, 1919 and suffered a broken left arm. At one point a man came into the market with a gun and demanded cash. Frank pulled a butcher knife from under the counter and told the man " If I see the hammer on that gun move, I will thrust this knife through your chest". The man thought a couple of seconds and then slowly backed out of the market. 1930 found Frank 58 years old and living in a house he owned on 610 Perry St. in Defiance, Ohio. Frank was now a proprietor of a hotel in Defiance, Ohio. His brother George had moved in with him. The Great Depression hit and Frank seems to have disappeared with the economy.
