Frank Washington Boultbee was a surveyor, city employee and military officer. He lived at several West End addresses in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
Family Background
Frank Washington Boultbee was born in Ancaster, Ontario on May 23, 1864 (He was often called “Tom.”) His parents were Washington Boultbee (1806-1875) and Eliza Sophia Bourne (1828-1926).
Washington Boultbee died at sea on June 14, 1875.
Eliza Sophia Boultbee died in Vancouver on May 20, 1926.
Early Life
Frank attended school in Hamilton, Ontario.
In 1881, he was living with his mother in the township of Glanford, Ontario.
In 1882 he went to Manitoba, where he became a railway surveyor with the Canadian Pacific Railway.
He later worked with the Manitoba and Northwestern Railway Company for four years. This railway was originally called the Portage, Westbourne and North Western. It was one of several “colonization railways” to which the Government of Canada gave grants of land in areas where the Canadian Pacific Railway’s main line did not run. The Manitoba and Northwestern Railway Company’s line was to go from Portage la Prairie to Yorkton.
To Vancouver
Frank arrived in Vancouver in 1887 as part of the Canadian Pacific Railway’s engineering staff.
For a time he worked on surveys for the City of Vancouver water works system, and he became the secretary of the Vancouver Water Works Company.
He lived at the following addresses in Vancouver.
| 1889 | Unnumbered house on Pender Street |
| 1890 | Pender Street between Homer Street and Richards Street |
| 1891 to 1892 | 410 Pender Street |
| 1894 to 1895 | 921 Hornby Street |
| 1896 to 1899 | 761 Hornby Street (listed as 76 Hornby Street in 1899) |
| 1899 to 1901 | 741 Bute Street |
| 1901 to 1905 | 779 Bute Street |
| 1906 to 1915 | 1067 Melville Street |
Military Interests
In 1885, Frank joined the Winnipeg Field Battery, in which he served as a gunner.
In Vancouver, Frank was one of the first officers in the Duke of Connaught’s Own Rifles.
He eventually became the officer in charge.
Water Works Department
The Vancouver Water Works Company, the Coquitlam Water Works Company, and the City of Vancouver were all incorporated on April 6, 1886.
Frank became the secretary of the Vancouver Water Works Company.
After a series of challenges, the city acquired the Vancouver Water Works operations. Frank became the city’s chief clerk or office manager for water works, although some sources still called him the secretary.
He remained with the city water works department until 1911.
Society Life
Frank appeared in the 1908 Vancouver society directory. (Note: although the directory referred to “Mrs. F.W. Boultbee,” it appears that this was an error. Frank was unmarried until 1923, and “Mrs. F. W. Boultbee” was probably Frank’s mother, Eliza Sophia Boultbee (née Bourne) (1828-1926).)
Frank also appeared in Who’s Who in Western Canada and Canadian Men and Women of the Time. He was a member of the Vancouver Club, and his recreations included fishing and shooting.
Changing Business Priorities
In the fall of 1910, Frank resigned as the commanding officer of the Duke of Connaught’s Own Rifles. His stated intention was to devote more time to the city’s water works activities.
However, by the spring of 1911, Frank had also resigned from his position with the city’s water works service. He went into a farm implement business in Chilliwack, British Columbia, along with Frank Algernon Hewer (1864- 1953), who was married to Frank Boultbee’s niece.
It is not clear how long the farming implement business lasted. Frank Hewer died on April 30, 1953, at Roberts Creek, British Columbia.
In the 1914 Vancouver directory, Frank Boultbee was an agent for the National Life Assurance Company.
Military Service during First World War
In late 1916, Frank enlisted in the Canadian Forestry Corps to serve with the allied forces during the First World War.
In May 1919, he was discharged during the general demobilization at the end of the war.
In 1920 he received an honour from the French government for his war service.
After the war, Frank returned to British Columbia, where he took up fruit farming at Agassiz.
Marriage to Beatrice Cora Boultbee
On October 30, 1923, in Vancouver, Frank married Beatrice Cora Boultbee, who was his distant cousin.
Beatrice had come to Canada to marry Frank.
Beatrice was born in Sheffield, England in 1879. Her parents were Arthur Hughes Boultbee (1841-1925) and Alice Bell (1851–1884).
Arthur Boultbee married Alice Bell on August 24, 1876.
Alice Boultbee died in Sheffield on April 9, 1884.
On April 7, 1887, in Sheffield, Arthur married Alice Anne Tasker.
Alice Annie Boultbee died in Sheffield on July 14, 1921.
Arthur Boultbee died on January 31, 1925.
Frank’s and Beatrice’s wedding was at St. Paul’s Church in Vancouver. The guests at the wedding ceremony also honored Frank’s mother, who was celebrating her 95th birthday.
Later Life
Frank and Beatrice lived in Agassiz for several years. They often participated in organizations that supported ex-service members and their families. Frank was also associated with the Boy Scout Association.
Frank died in Agassiz on September 7, 1933. A funeral ceremony took place at All Saints’ Anglican Church in Agassiz.
A second ceremony occurred at Christ Church Cathedral in Vancouver.
Frank was buried in Mountain View Cemetery in Vancouver.
Beatrice Boultbee died in Vancouver on March 19, 1945. She was buried at Mountain View Cemetery in Vancouver.
Frank and Beatrice did not have children.

It was acquired by Sir Hugh Allen and Associates of Montreal and renamed the Manitoba & North Western (M&NW). Regular train service between Portage and Minnedosa were inaugurated in September 1883. Extensions of the M&NW to the west, to Solsgirth (August 1885), Langenburg (December 1886), Saltcoats (1888), and Yorkton (1889). Branches to Russell and Rapid City were built in 1886.”
