Kentucky: A History of the State, Perrin, Battle, Kniffin, 8th ed., 1888,
Jefferson Co.

FRANK PARSONS, lawyer, was born in this city January 2, 1850, and is a
son of Charles Booth and Emily (Oldham) Parsons, natives of Enfield, Conn.,
and of Jefferson County, Kentucky.  The subject received a liberal
education in the high schools of this city, and at the State University at
Bloomington, Indiana.  He read law with Jackson & Parson and was admitted
to practice at the Louisville bar in March, 1874, and did a general law
business up to August, 1887, when he was elected commonwealth's attorney
by 7,000 majority over General Alpheus Baker, which was the first office
ever solicited by Mr. Parsons.  As a lawyer at the bar Mr. Parsons is
quiet, and even in his temperament, courteous and polite to his witness;
has a penetrating manner, and is making a remarkable record.  Added to this
he has a polished address, and is one of the most finished speakers at the
bar.  He was married in 1873 to Miss Minnie Dent, a daughter of Col. Henry
Dent, of Louisville.
