Biographical Sketch (1882):733 "John . . . Frame . . . was born in Kentucky in 1804, and came to Preble County when quite young; [Ufa Peak Frame] was born in Ohio in 1810, and lived there till after her marriage. In 1835, they emigrated to Michigan City, La Porte County, where Mr. Frame followed the coopering business. In 1849, they came to Porter County, settling in Pine Township, where his mother [Ufa Peak Frame] died December 29, 1860, and his father [John Frame] died February 29, 1872."
Biographical Sketch (1912):735 "John Frame [was] born in 1804, and Eupha (Peak) Frame [was] born in 1810. [John] Frame removed with his family to Michigan City in 1835 and remained a resident of that place until 1849, when he located in Pine township, Porter county. He was a man of fine character and exemplary habits, a devout member of the Baptist church and a leader in its activities, and was also a valued member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
Younger Frame [son of John and Eupha] was a member of a family of nine children, few of whom survive at this writing. His oldest brother, Francis P., deceased, was a veteran of the Civil War; his sister Nancy, deceased, was the wife of Ethan Stephens; Lucinda, who married George Shaner, and a brother, John, are deceased. The next brother, William, married Mary Anderson and lives in Chicago. Martin, deceased, a soldier in the Civil War, married Elizabeth Goodwin, and Edwin, deceased, was married to Anna Pratt."
