Portrait photograph of Frances A. (Finks) Borden with short curly hair and wearing a dress with ruffles along the edge of the collar and a cameo pin on the front.
Her parents were Romeo Jasper and Ruth Geneva (Burner) Finks from Maurertown.
Frances married Ralph Milton Borden, a farmer, in 1938. His parents were Taylor Ulysus and Lizzie May (Richmond) Borden, also from Maurertown.
They divorced nine years later. By then, Frances lived in Strasburg and worked at the Viscose plant. She had a young daughter, Shirley Borden, as well.
Not long after that, Frances moved to Roanoke where she became a beauty shop operator and met John Lewis Clements, Jr., a welder who had also been married once before. The two were married in Roanoke in January 1948, but this marriage also ended in 1961.
She married for the third time in 1971 to James William Law (1921-2015). She was still living in Roanoke at the time. The couple were together for forty years before Frances died.
