Frank's parents immigrated to the USA from Poland in the 1860's, sometime before his birth. The family name was originally Krzyzanski. Frank changed his name to Chris and his brother Anton took the name of Kalkins. Their parents were John & Magdalena (Krysiak)Krzyzanski.

Frank's brother, Anton or Anthony, moved to Wrangell AK before 1900. The brothers had not seen each other since Anton left WI. In 1924, Frank received word his brother was gravely ill and in Seattle for medical treatment. Frank made the journy to see his brother one last time, but arrived after his brother died.

There is some evidence that Frank's son Steve may have visited and worked in Wrangell AK for a short time. So, the family appears to have stayed in contact with one another. Further, we believe Anton's son, Edward may have visited WI around 1910-1915.
