Frank Bull, son of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Bull, was born at Huntsville, Ill., in 1878. He came to Helena from Wichita in 1904 as bookkeeper for the Helena State Bank. It was owned by a Mr. Denninger and a Mr. Fred Winslow. They also owned the bank in Carmen.
In 1905 he married Metta Medaris. Her history may be found under that of her parents, the Dr. J.H. Medaris. Frank was connected with the Helena Bank until 1920, with the exception of a two year period when he was sent to manage a bank at Maizie, Okla. He later became president of the bank in Helena holding that position until he sold his interest in 1920 and moved to Boulder, Colo. In Boulder he represented several of the major farm loan companies, served as appraiser for the Home Owners Loan Corporation, and was a member of the Society of Residental Appraisers. At one time he owned and operated a suburban grocery store in Boulder. He died in 1962.
The Bull's have two sons who attended the University of Colorado. Howard and his wife Alma live in Denver. Henry and his wife, Janet, live at Shelter Island, N.Y. Henry's sons, Stephen and Jefferson, live in New York City and Cambridge, Mass. Metta still resides in Boulder.
