Four of Frost’s six children died before he did, including Carol, the son who committed suicide. Frost’s daughter Irma suffered mental problems that required hospitalization, and Elinor battled anxiety, too.
For the next decade, Frost farmed poultry, raised children (son Carol, born in 1902; daughter Irma, born 1903; daughter Marjorie, born in 1905; and daughter Elinor Bettina, who died just days after birth in 1907), and taught English at nearby Pinkerton Academy.
In 1895, Frost married his high school love and fellow valedictorian, Elinor Miriam White. He supported them both by means of a cobbled-together career of teaching and farming, neither of which proved to be particularly successful endeavors. The ensuing decade saw the birth of six children, two of whom died young.
