Frank served in the CEF (Overseas Canadian Expeditionary Force) in WW1. His digitized service record is at the link below courtesy of Library and Archives Canada. Click at the PDF towards the bottom of the page to access the record. There are 54 pages and it will be slow to download. Catherine and his first 3 daughters are listed on one of the pages.

PS....he gives a birth year of 1883 on his attestation but there is a birth year of 1881 recorded on one of the other pages, if I remember correctly.
