Caption on mount: George F. Frye

George F. Frye (1833-1911) was a Seattle pioneer. Arriving in Seattle in 1853, the 20-year-old German immigrant helped Henry Yesler assemble his steam sawmill and quickly became a favorite of Arthur and Mary Denny and, later, of their daughter. Louisa had just turned 17 when George married her in 1860. Together they had six children. George and Louisa Frye ran the first meat market in Seattle, opened a bakery, and raised the city’s first distinguished stage, the Frye Opera House. George Frye also organized the community's first brass band, built and managed at least three hotels, and invested in real estate, all with great success.
