FRANK M. FULLER

FRANK M. FULLER.--Sacramento has always been fortunate in numbering among its citizens many men of marked constructive ability and thorough experience, well qualified to undertake extensive and important contract work. Such a man is Frank M. Fuller, the widely operating plumber, who well represents this class of industrial leaders, so closely associated with the growth of both city and county. He was born at Woodland, Cal., on March 30, 1889, and came to Sacramento early enough to enjoy the exceptional educational advantages of the city’s schools. His father, Robert H. Fuller, came around the Horn to California; while the mother, who was Miss Hattie Nichols before her marriage, came across the great plains and mountains to the Golden State. They were married here, and here they are still living, the father now being seventy-five years of age. He worked in the Southern Pacific shops, and in time received a pension; and he enjoys the good name of a steady, first-class workman upon whom his employers could always depend.

Frank Fuller was apprenticed to the plumbing trade, and for some years worked as a journeymen; and in 1920, after patriotically serving in the aviation branch of the United States Army for nine months during the World War, he established himself in business. He undertakes general contracting in the plumbing line, using only the most up-to-date, sanitary methods, and only first-class materials and appliances. He renders careful personal service, for which he expects to be fairly paid. His shop is at 2010 M. Street, and is one of the model workshops of the town.

On July 15, 1920, at Sacramento, Mr. Fuller was married to Miss Genevieve Douglass, a popular belle of Sacramento, and the daughter of James and Elizabeth (Thellwell) Douglass; and they now have two children, Phyllis Mac and Marion Thellwell. In Politics, Mr. Fuller is an Independent. Fraternally, he belongs to the Odd Fellows and the Woodmen of the World.
