"Lucius Q. C. Lamar: His Life, Times, And Speeches 1825-1893" (p. 42), by Edward Mayes, describes Frances Branham and her sister as having the following qualities: "rather above medium height, [...] with remarkably fair complexions, black hair, and blue-gray eyes. [...] Mrs. Branham had her father's wit, bright, sparkling, and pungent, but tempered by the kindliest feeling. [...] Both had the cheering disposition of their father. [...] Mrs. Branham's cheerfulness, on the other hand, was of a more tranquil character, being modified by somewhat of the gentle pensiveness of their mother; and she was much more given to serious and introspective musing than was her sister."
