Abstract

Frank Phillipe's great-grandfather Solomon Philippe, a saloon owner, came to Leadville in the1800's. Gertrude Miller Phillipe and Frank Phillipe built a log cabin in Frisco. Son Robert Phillipe rescued and renovated an 1880 Denver & Rio Grande narrow-guage railroad car and re-purposed it as his real estate office. He also restored an 1875 engine and tender.
