      Frank J. Violette was born in Old Town, Maine on June 2, 1894. In 1910 he accompanied his parents to Panama. On August 19, 1912 he was employed as a carpenter for the Panama Canal Company.

They moved to Providence, Rhode Island where their two children, Bill and Francis were born. In late 1919 Frank, Lima and their two children moved to the Canal Zone where Frank was employed by the Fortifications Division of the Panama Canal Company at Mensa Bay.
