The hip never healed. Ford, 84, was born April 26, 1877 on Alcatraz Island, the son of Patrick Ford, an Army officer stationed at the artillery post on that island. He came to Arizona when 18 months old and resided in Prescott, where he attended school and then worked in the bridge and building department of the Santa Fe Railroad. He moved to Williams about 30 years ago to reside with his sister 'Aunt' Mary Ford Platten, at Davenport Lake Ranch. ----------------------------------------------------- Arizona Daily Sun, Flagstaff, Arizona Friday, August 11, 1961, page 2, column 9 Williams Rites For Frank Ford Williams - Funeral services for Frank Ford, who died Thursday, will be at 11 a.m. Saturday in St. Joseph's Catholic Church.
