Its name is reported as being derived from the name of the wife of "Mr Henry Jones of Binnum Station." Boundaries of the locality were created in April 2001.[1] For much of its history, Frances was a railway town on the Mount Gambier railway line, which runs from Wolseley in the north to Mount Gambier in the south. A State Road, Frances Road, runs from Bordertown through Frances to Hynam.[9] Despite the closure of the railway on 12 April 1995, Frances continues to be a receiving point for grain, with several silos.[10] It set a record for the most grain received at Frances in the season on 10 January 2017, by which time it had received over {{convert|43000|t}}.[11] It also set a new record for the most grain received in a single day at the site.[12] Every February, Frances hosts the Frances Folk Gathering, a weekend-long folk music festival, with the whole town given over to music and visitors.[13] This tradition began in 2000.[14] Frances is located within the federal division of Barker, the state electoral district of MacKillop and the local government area of the Naracoorte Lucindale Council.[1][6][7] References
