  The daughter of Robert Anderson.
  
  She married first to Benjamin Littlepage on 20 Dec 1797 in Campbell Co., VA. Her father was named on the marriage record.
  
  Frances and Benjamin moved to Muhlenberg Co., KY by May 1803, when Benjamin entered 200 acres of land.
  
  Benjamin became guardian of two orphans, Samuel and William Caruthers in April 1808 in Muhlenberg Co., KY, and his and Frances' son Robert was born there that year on 6 Oct. The last mention of Benjamin in Muhlenberg Co., KY was a reference to his land on a survey in Apr 1810, but he wasn't listed on the census that year.
  
  The next definite mention of Frances was when she was appointed administrator of her second husband Josiah Well's estate on 14 Sep 1821 in Clarke Co., Alabama. Josiah Wells' parents were early settlers of Muhlenberg Co., KY and neighbors there of the Littlepages, but he himself had settled in Sumner Co., TN (about eighty miles away) before moving sometime between 1807-1813 to Clarke Co., AL.
  
  1830 - Frances was listed as a head-of-house in Clarke Co., AL:
