Somewhere she found out differently and changed the names on the charts. We did prove Frederick Fraley as a Revolutionary Soldier and did join DAR. I will have to contact her and see what she found. Yes, I also have a Brinton as the son of Issac Oliver (my line) and also his son James Elihu had a Brinton. I have never seen a list of brothers and sisters for Frederick Fraley so maybe he was a brother and someone just got Frederick and Brinton mixed up. It would be interesting to find out. Do you have a copy of Frederick's will? I would like to see and have a copy of that. Many of the documents we used to prove Frederick was sent to the DAR by my aunt so I never saw them. I proved my relationship to her so I only filed a short form. I think this is great that so many us are related to Frederick. This is the first list I'm on that I have found so many "cousins".
