She was the daughter of Henry B. Newcomb (1803-1878) and Philocha Clark (1810-1872). B.M. Newcomb said that Frances married John Russell on 28 May 1864. However, in the 1870 census she is listed with the surname Newcomb, living with her parents. Her name is on a Newcomb tombstone in Charlotte Cemetery with her parents, one sister and one sister-in-law.
