FRANK L. PALMER, a prosperous and influential farmer of Priest Valley, San
Benito county, California, is a native son of this State, and was born in San
Francisco, May 11, 1855. The well-known pioneer, Samuel Palmer, is his father,
than whom no one has done more to develop the resources of the country. Frank L.
Palmer now owns one of the finest farms in the valley, beautifully situated and
well cultivated to mixed farming, including altogether 320 acres. As may well be
imagined, this prosperity has not come by chance, but by arduous effort,
unflagging energy and indomitable perseverance, unremittingly exercised by its
owner; the thrift of the place being a reflex of Mr. Palmer's character.

  Mr. Palmer was fortunate in securing an intelligent and careful helpmate in
the person of Miss E. Myers, whom he married July 22, 1882. She was born January
19, 1862, and is a daughter of A. Myers, a prominent citizen of the county. They
have three chilren: [sic] Ada, born November 10, 1884; Enriquita, born January
13, 1888; and Darrow, a son, born January 10, 1891.

  In his domestic life and as a citizen and business man, Mr. Palmer is
characterized by the same intelligence, uprightness and geniality, whom to know
is to respect and esteem.
