Born Sharpless Moore Walton to Chester Co., Pa. farmer Nathan P. Walton (1835-1869) and Elma (Moore) Walton; earned a DVM degree from New York University in 1881; married 1) Jennie Louise Campe, in Idaho, 1886; 2) Mollie Ryan in Spokane, 1918.

In Spokane, Walton was in the insurance and real estate business. It is not known when or why he changed his name to "Frank," but his death certificate confirms his parentage.

The Waltons of Chester County, Pennsylvania were originally Quaker, but since Frank Walton's obituary says there was a Rosary said for him, and he is buried in a Catholic cemetery, it appears that he embraced the Catholic faith.
