FRANK HALSTEAD, Retired Sugar Planter. Arriving in Hawaii with his parents in 
1865, when he was but eleven months old, Frank Halstead has had a long and 
constructive career in the islands and was a prominent figure in the 
tremendous development of the sugar industry which occurred during the latter 
part of the last century. Entering business with his father, the late Robert 
Halstead, on the latter’s sugar plantation at Waialua, in 1888, Mr. Halstead 
and his brother, Edgar, later took over the entire management of the property, 
which in 1898 was purchased by the Waialua Agricultural Co., Ltd.
  Leaving Honolulu temporarily after disposing of the Waialua plantation, Mr. 
Halstead spent two years traveling in Europe and when he returned in 1900 
entered the brokerage business with Willard Brown, establishing the firm of 
Halstead & Co. In 1904, Mr. Halstead retired from active business life, 
selling his interest in the brokerage firm to W. A. Love.
  Born at Manchester, England, April 22, 1864, Mr. Halstead is the son of 
Frank and Sarah Ellen Halstead. He received his early education in Honolulu 
schools, and completed his education at Heald’s Business College in San 
Francisco in 1884. Mr. Halstead and Mary Elizabeth Cocks were married in 
England, Nov. 17, 1892. They have four children, Mrs. William Bibee, Gladys, 
Gordon and Cecil Halstead. Mr. Halstead is a Mason and a member of the Pacific 
and Oahu Country Clubs.
