The proper pronunciation of the name Lutz is Lutes like the musical instrument. Often the name is spelled Lutes in Canada to avoid confusion.

Attended the Winfield Scott Elementary School near the Presidio of San Francisco circa 1900.

Survived the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake.

He joined the National Guard on March 18,1908. He listed his birthdate as Jan. 5, 1887.

Married Frances "Edwina" Luce July 12, 1912.

Laid to Rest January 09, 1914

The funeral of Frank Lutz, the young man who met such a tragic death at the pottery works last Saturday afternoon as told in last week's News-Messenger, was held from the Methodist Church here Monday afternoon and was largely attended by sorrowing friends of the family and by those with whom the deceased had worked for over a year past and was extremely popular. The death of this young man and the circumstances connected with it made the funeral a particularly sad and impressive one, and all those present showed marks of deep grief. The sermon of the Rev. Hal Burns was consoling and beautiful, the hymns were sweet and touchingly rendered, and the flowers were fair and expressive of the deepest sympathy, especially those from the men with whom the deceased had been closely associated in his daily toil. Deep and poignant was the grief of the young woman who has been bereaved of the companionship of one who was ever loving, tender, and true – bowed-down with agonizing grief was the one torn from a lovely married state and keenly alive to what was and now is not – pathetic was the thought of the fatherless babe too young to realize the significance of the awful loss. The deceased was a steady, industrious, and up-right young man and very competent in his line of work. He was a native of California and 24 years of age. Besides a wife and infant child, he leaves a brother, sister, and father residing in San Francisco. The inquest over the remains of the deceased was held Saturday by Coroner Bisbee, and a verdict of accidental death was rendered by the jury. According to the testimony given, the deceased had been frequently cautioned while working around the pulley and shaft which caused his death, to be extremely careful. The pulley was making about 165 revolutions a minute, and just how the accident occurred no one was able to tell.

An "Award was made in the sum of $2,025.00. being three times the average annual earnings of the deceased, payable in weekly installments of $8.45." to his wife Frances "Edwina" Lutz.
