He was about three years old when his father died. In 1889 his mother removed to a farm in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and in 1891 moved to Charleroi, then in its infancy, where thereafter resided. Here, after his school days were over, he was employed as assistant to a civil engineer for two years, after which he held the position of timekeeper and paymaster in the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company's works No. 6 for about ten years, which position he resigned to go in business for himself.
Mr. Frye was a member of Charleroi Lodge, No. 615, F. and A. M., Monongahela Chapter, R. A. M., and of Lodge No. 623, K. of P. He served some years as a member of Charleroi borough council. He was also assistant fire chief of the Charleroi volunteer fire department.
