Frederick was a dear friend of Reuben Elizabeth Jennings. When Reuben was dying of typhoid fever in 1890 Frederick promised him that he would look after his young wife and five daughters after his death. Two years later, Frederick and Elizabeth decided to marry. They married in the Registrar's Office of West Ham, London. Frederick was a good father and never made any difference between his own children and those of Elizabeth's marriage to Reuben. Frederick and Elizabeth named their four daughters after flowers. Their son narrowly escaped this cruel fate.
