I am looking for information on Arkillus or Archillus Frazier son of Solomon & Susannah Hounshell Frazier, m. Martha Robinson, Children: Ida Bell Frazier, born Sept. 30, 1891. Possibly Holbert Frazier b. 1899., and Anne Frazier born in 1910. Ida Bell Frazier is my grandmother, I know that she was born in Jackson Ky but can not find anything about other children in this family. Would anyone know if Holbert and Anne Frazier are children of these two and if there are any other children? I would appreciate any information as I seem to have run into a brick wall as far as this particular family goes. Judy

Harold You are right I am new and just beginning my search. Also a general location would be good and I'm sure very helpful! 8-) Sorry about that I'll figure this out... with help. Thanks. The Frazier/Martin's and theNall/Jordan's have probably been in the Greensboro, Gilford County, NC and surrounding counties for over 80 years. I will try to get more information as I go throught Censuses and other records. Thanks for the help. Gale My name is Gale and I am researching the Frazier, Martin, Nall, Jordan family Lines. My husband John's farther was Charles Henry Martin and Charles' mother was Ollie Frazier Martin. I am just beginning the search for my husband's side of the family and any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gale dmartin@dnet.net

Frazer people - please help me out on this, as I am new to this list. Is the FRAZIER list the same as the FRAZER list??? If not, why not? As family historians, we know that most of the surname spellngs we find result from someone who does NOT bear the name writing it down in one record or another. As we know - spelling was NOT our ancestors' long suit; Shakespeare himself spelled his own name five different ways. I have seen stated as the first rule of genealogists: don't sweat the spelling! Many of our ancestors had limited, or no, ability to read and write for themselves. Even if they did, they were more often speaking their names to others to write down than writing themselves - when married, when a death took place, etc. As a result, names were reproduced phonetically by the clerks, etc., who took them down - and those who physically wrote the names may have been disinterested, hearing-impaired, or not very literate themselves. The whole story of the development of surnames plays into this - for a long time people had no second names at all - then only certain people did, who needed to be identified with specificity - then it was seen that second names were useful and most people began to have them - but for another long span of time there was no one right way to spell each name; people did not consider it important. The preferred spelling of each name probably took several generations to establish itself. Till then, the spellings were all over the map. Other aspects of life played a part - as when a bearer of name derived from language A went to live in a country where language B was spoken: e.g., think Scots settling in New France in the early 1700s. Will someone let me know the prevalent tone or sentiment of this list community on the above? I have FRASER/FRAZER/FRAZIER family to ask about, but will defer for a few days. Cheers to all, and thank you. Ginny Crawford California USA VCrawf@aol.com

Hello, my name is Dennis and I just joined the Frazier list. I'm looking the information on the Frazer family of Edwardsburg Township of Grenville, ON, Canada. Two specifically, Susan Frazer, who married William Tucker in Dec of 1827. Also Thomas Frazer who married Maria Tucker. Maria and William Tucker were brother and sister, and I'm guessing that Susan and Thomas Frazer were also brother and sister, but I have no solid evidence of that. Any information that anyone can provide would be appreciated.

Still looking, James Frazier living on Jarrots Branch with wife Abigail Davies/Davis children James , Martha, Henry and Benjamin. Any info on parents or birth place of James or Abigail greatly appreciated. Shirley Combs

Does any subscriber have any information on Ann Frazier who lived in Barbour County Alabama in the mid 1800's? Who was she married and what happened to him? My great grandfather was Ann's oldest child. His name was Louis Frazier and he migrated to Ruston Louisiana in the late 1800's along with his wife, her parents and several of their siblings. I don't know if any of Louis's brothers or sisters migrated with him as I have not been able to find any indication they did. It is alleged that Ann Frazier lived near a Greathouse family and possibly some of her children were fathered by the Greathouse man who allegedly might have been supporting her and her family as well as his own. This is a great mystery to me and I would love to have any information on this family. Allegedly Ann came from South Carolina or Virginia. Elaine White
