Here is what I have on Francis: Valentine, Frances Marion [c1858—] (Recorded at Ritchie County courthouse with Luverna Lemon’s birth record is a notation that Sarah Jane has had ten children with one not alive at that time. Frances may have died young; 1910 Ritchie county census notes Sarah Jane Lemon (w) has had 10 children with 9 living at date of census). I think you may be correct...
