If not a brother, then likely a cousin as these people tended to migrate in family groups. One source says her father was William Fryer/Frier (b ca 1760) and mother was Mary FANCHER. I realize this post has been up for some time, but thought I'd try contacting you as the timeframe and pattern of movement across the country fit. Sarah married Thomas Carleton III in Bibb, county, AL in AUG 1816. They moved their family to LA in 1855 settling in Winn parish, near a spot called Kysiche (spelled many ways), not far from Louisville, now Gansville, LA. Sarah died after the 1864 CSA tax rolls & before the 1870 census. Thomas, who was a number of years older, died between 1860 - 1864. If this sounds as though Sarah could fit into your line, please send me a message at jjg6808@earthlink.net. Thanks, Janell
