Frank was born at Nittendorf, Regensburg, Bavaria, a son of Joseph HAMMER and Anna Maria GRAFF. Frank's birth date is in question. His obituary in the Beaver Dam Argus says he was born on 25 Aug 1839; his death certificate shows 25 Aug 1840, but German church records give the date used here at FindaGrave.
