General Notes
Note
Notes: Frank Draper was the son of James Sumner Draper (1811-1896) and (Emeline) Amanda Reeves Draper (1818-1875). He was born in Wayland and served in the Civil War. He was a graduate of Harvard Medical School and a prominent surgeon in Boston and a Professor at the Harvard Medical School. He married Frances Jones (Fanny) (1840-1912) in 1870. They were the owners of 105 Plain Rd. in Wayland from 1889-1907 although their primary residence was on Marlboro St. in Boston and later in Brookline. The silverware was all definitely used by Frank Draper and his family. Some goes back to Cathy Draper's great, great grandparents, James Sumner and Amanda Reeves Draper.
