Frank Wesley Standart (March 20, 1871 – November 8, 1941) was an American lawyer and politician.
Standart was born on March 20, 1871, in Elma, New York. He was a son of Civil War veteran William Wesley Standart (1835–1907) and Barbara (née Hermann) Standart, who was born in Germany in 1836 and came to this country at the age of sixteen. His father ran a general store in Elma.[1]
His paternal grandparents were War of 1812 veteran William Standart and Olive Morse (née Draper) Standart. He was a great-grandson of Oliver Standart, who was a soldier in the American Revolution, and married Nancy Hancock (niece of signor John Hancock).[1]
He attended the district school until the family moved to Buffalo when he was twelve and entered a high school in 1887, from which he graduated in 1891. He then taught school in Elma for two years.[1]
