Is there an example of a flat proper morphism of schemes $X\rightarrow S$ whose fibers are geometrically connected, reduced and have dimension 1, but which is not itself finitely presented? What happens if we additionally require that the base scheme $S$ is connected and the fibers are stable curves of a constant (arithmetic) genus?

    $\begingroup$ @YCor I think it is somewhat amusing that in Russian the word for "of course" is the same as the word for "finitely". $\endgroup$

Regarding the first question, this may be useful. It is claimed that there exists "a proper flat morphism of schemes $X \rightarrow S$ each of whose fibres is isomorphic to either $\mathbb{P}^1_s$ or to the vanishing locus of $X_1 X_2$ in $\mathbb{P}^2_s$ which is not of finite presentation."
