FRANK HAYNES
Arizona, The Youngest State, 1913, pg 618

Frank Haynes, serving in a creditable and able manner as 
Sheriff of Gila County, was born in Tennessee in 1874, a 
son of Henry and Martha Haynes, the former a native of 
Virginia and the latter of Kentucky.  They made their home 
for many years in Tennessee, where the father owned a large 
plantation, which he operated until his death in 1878.  The 
mother remained upon the homestead for ten years thereafter 
and then removed to Eastland, Texas where she resided until 
her death in 1891. In the family were two children, but the 
younger died in infancy.

Frank Haynes acquired his education in the public schools 
of Texas and when he was eighteen years of age went upon a 
ranch as a cowboy, continuing at that work until 1898 when 
he entered the employ of the Texas Pacific Railroad. He was 
a brakeman upon that road until 1900 in which year he came 
to Arizona, settling first in Globe and later in Bisbee, 
where he remained until 1903.  Returning to Globe in that 
year, he resumed his connection with railroading, entering 
the service of the Arizona Eastern Railroad and maintaining 
his connection with it until 1908 when he was appointed 
Deputy Sheriff under Henry Thompson, serving until 1912.  
In that year Sheriff Thompson resigned and Mr. Haynes was 
appointed to fill out his unexposed term. At the elections 
in 1911 he was elected to the position by a large majority.

Mr. Haynes owns good residence and business property in 
Globe and has interests in valuable mining claims near the 
city.
