Reese, Frank, German Flats, was born in Richfield, July 17, 1834. His father
Matthew Reese, was a farmer, and the early years of his son were spent amid
rural surroundings. Fifty years ago he came to Ilion, and his first business
undertaking was on the canal, where he spent about nine seasons. He then em-
barked in the trucking business and soon started a livery also. For twelve 
years he was engaged in the carting business in partnership with Sanford 
Getman. He has been in the bus business here since 1857, except for five or 
six years, and has carried the United States mail nearly all of these years.  
In 1861 Mr. Reese married Elmira Piper, daughter of Nicholas Piper. Mr. Reese 
is one of the scions of the oldest and most honorable families of this 
section, and he has himself, by a long, honorable and successful business 
career won the highest respect and esteem of all classes.  He is a staunch 
Democrat.
