I have recently found my Frazier roots (at least in part) and joined the list. William M. Frazier wrote his will in Dearborn Co., Indiana on Sept. 9, 1827. He died within 3 months, as his will was proven Dec. 8, 1827. In the will he names his wife as Clarissa, his daughters as Elizabeth Melinda and Mary Ann, and his father as Samuel Frazier. The records from 1828 and 1829 for the settlement of his estate show that Clarissa married N. Knapp before Dec. 1828, and gives Elizabeth Melinda Frazier's birtday as January 5, 1825; Mary Ann Frazier's is shown as April 4, 1827. Elizabeth Melinda Frazier married my g g grandfather, Levi Thomas in Fayette County, Indiana on October 17, 1841; Mary Ann married Anderville Hillis on Nov. 14, 1852, also in Fayette County. The "Biographical and Genealogical History of Wayne, Fayette, Union and Franklin Counties, Indiana", Lewis Publishing, 1899 names Clarissa's father as Elijah Thatcher, her second husband as Nehemiah Knapp, and she gives Massachusetts as her birth state in the 1850 census. I would be interested in any available information on my Fraziers, particularly information on Samuel Frazier. Samuel is show as being older than 45 in the 1820 Dearborn County Census, with 2 boys age 10 to 16, 1 age 16 to 26, with 3 females under 10, one 16 to 26, and one 26 to 45.
