Frew married Glasgow Girl Bessie MacNicol (1869-1904) in 1899. He was a keen sailor who exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts in London, the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh and at the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts. The couple bought the artist D. Y. Cameron's former house in Hillhead, Glasgow where they lived until MacNicol died in childbirth in 1904. Frew died four years later.
