Does anyone know how Rudolph Frank (Leo's father) met his mother, Rachel Frank? At the time (they were married in 1881), Rudolph was living and working in Cuero, Texas (as a postmaster) and Rae was in Brooklyn, NY.

Thanks.

Perhaps it was an arranged marriage of the eugenic type that every man dreams of? At a time when life expectancies were in the 40's, born November 5, 1844, Rudolph Frank was 37 years old in 1881 when he married in Brooklyn a young 22 year old Rachel Jacobs born April 16, 1859. They created the perfect nuclear family, first a boy, Leo Max in far off Cuero, TX, April 17, 1884, and then a girl, Marian Jacobs back in Brooklyn, NY, Oct 18, 1886. The family lived out their lives in Brooklyn, except when visiting Leo often in Atlanta 1913 to 1915. Who provides references to the origins of the Leo Frank family?
