FRANK G. SCHLOSSER, D. D. S.

Active among the successful representatives of dentistry in
Denver is Dr. Frank G. Schlosser, who was born in Green Village,
Franklin county, Pennsylvania, September 9, 1859, his parents being Dr.
Noah and Sarah Katherine (Maxwell) Schlosser, both of whom were born in
Franklin county, Pennsylvania, and the latter was a descendant of Molly
Pitcher, the famous heroine of Revolutionary war days who upon the
death of her husband, who was killed in action, took his place at the
gun. The father of Frank G. Schlosser was a prominent member of the
dental profession in the east and ranked very high as a practitioner in
Pennsylvania and later in Denver. He removed to this city in 1883 and
opened an office, continuing actively in the profession until 1888. His
death occurred in 1909, when he had reached the notable old age of
eighty-seven years. His wife passed away in Denver in 1914 when she.
too, was well advanced in years. They were married in Franklin county,
Pennsylvania, and to them were born five children: Frank G., of this
review; Elmer E., who is an attorney at law practicing in Denver; G.
A., of Denver; and Mrs. L. E. Spangler and Mrs. Alwida D. White, also
of Denver.

In his youthful days Frank G. Schlosser was a pupil in the public
schools of Pennsylvania to the time when he entered the State
University. He studied there for one term and then entered the Chicago
Dental College, from which he was graduated with the class of 1884,
after receiving thorough training in preparation for the profession. He
came to Denver in 1885 and has since built up a large and successful
practice. He holds to the highest professional standards and is a
member of the Denver City and County Dental Society and was dental
examiner for the city of Denver in 1890 and 1891.

On the 9th of May, 1888, Dr Schlosser was married to Miss Ella K.
Brown and to them were born three children: Russell K., a graduate of
the Denver Manual Training high school; Amy Ella, residing in Denver;
and Katherine S.

Dr. Schlosser is very prominent as a representative of the dental
profession and that he has prospered as the years have gone on is
indicated in the fact that he is the owner of a fine home in Denver and
other valuable property.
