Notes: Frank and Carrie began their married life in Napa in 1904, had their two sons there, and remained in Napa through 1911.

Frank and Carrie were very attracted to the promises of the planned new oceanfront community of Granada, California, which was heavily promoted as a homeowners' paradise — beginning with the commencement in June 1908 of Ocean Shore Railroad service from San Francisco. After April 1910, Frank rented a new house, built in 1909, at 338 Almeria Avenue in North Granada.
By the summer of 1913 Frank and Carrie were entertaining relatives from Napa and showing them the broad, beautiful beaches of Granada.

Tragedy struck in July 1922 when son Arthur accidentally hung himself.

On 15 Jun 1947 Frank and Carrie hosted a family gathering at their home on Alemia Street in rural El Granada. Attendees included Richard (Dick) and Helen Beck and their son Richard (Dick) Jr., Ed and Myrtle Glos, Wilfred and Nora Hancock, Joan Ethel Harrison, Jerry and Alice Phelps, and others.

Frank Hancock came to Napa sometime between 1948 and 1951 — which Dan believes was a very rare trip to Napa for him. Carrie probably was with Frank, but Dan doesn't remember her. Frank died shortly thereafter in April 1951.
