Reportedly the son of Dr. Samuel E. BOYKIN by his second wife, Narcissa COOPER, whom he married 31 JUL 1822 in Eatonton, Putnam County, Georgia. If Frank's reported birth date of 31 JUL 1825 is accurate, he was born on their third anniversary; however, a transcription of family Bible records in the Daughters of the American Revolution database shows the date to be 30 JUL 1825. Dr. BOYKIN headed a household in Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia, in 1840. Frank was in Barbour County, Alabama, in 1850 and 1860; both the Bible record and a newspaper obituary report that he died there in 1863.

Buster Wright's "Burials and Deaths Reported in the Columbus (Georgia) Enquirer [Newspaper], 1832-1872" (1984), p. 47, shows: Frank BOYKIN, born in Georgia, died aged 38 years; buried 12 AUG 1863 as a non-resident of Columbus, Georgia (from Sexton's report published 10 OCT 1863).
