Franklin Finley was born December 7, 1862 in Springfield Twp located in La Porte County, Indiana to John and Caroline (Welch) Finley. He is first found in 1860 Census living with his parents and siblings in Willow Hill, Jasper, Illinois. By 1880 the family had moved back to La Porte County, Indiana and resided in Galena Twp. In 1900 Frank was found living in Galena Twp with his parents, sister, and his brother in law.

Frank continued to live in Galena Twp until his death on November 27, 1918 at the age of 57. I was able to find his death certificate but his cause of death is illegible. He was laid to rest next to his father on December 1, 1918. Frank never married.

His real name was Franklin which is confirmed by census records. His headstone and death record list his name as "Frank" which is the name he went by most of his life.
