HI, Did you rec the chart I sent you?, it said that Peter was born in KY. so this would be a good place to look. I have been tracing for 23 yrs. remember to look for different spelling.In a Deed for my ROBERT FRIER (Sr.) in one document I have it has his name spelled Frier, Fryer, Freer.... My Robert M. Frier came to Madison Co Mo.My Dr. Henry Newberry, was spelled Newbury in the KY 1810 Census. In Goodspeeds History of S/E Mo. it has my Mathew Monroe Hicks as KICKS. Dennis is my Cousin. & I LOVE her DEARLY. because she has gave SO MANY people along with me her HARD work on her family info. & has sent me copies from the Madison Co Court House through the years on Surnames that Don't belong to her, But that has been SO inportant to me in my life. Like a copy of a hand written letter that My G-GGf MM Hicks wrote. I will get her addy tomorrow for you. Kathy in Michigan I Want to see Fredericktown & Farmington MO SOOOOOOOOOO BAD. This I feel is where all my Dads side came together., Years ago when I saw a Clint Eastwood Movie that said abt Missouri being called the SHOW ME STATE, I thought that was so cool, Never dreaming All my Roots came together there. This MICHIGANER is PROUD to be connected to this State.of MO ---------Surnames --to name a few--- Hicks, Mathews, Frier, Newberry, Cook, St. Gemme, Rion, La Chance, ----- Original Message ----- From: FIRSTTIGRESS@aol.com To: jnewton62@comcast.net Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 11:15 PM Subject: Re: [MOMADISO-L] cemetaries...

(I have the book Historical Madison Co 1818-1989 & on page 31 there is a Big write up abt HIGDON. OK I don't know about some of the later dates and people because my Fry's had moved on to Arkansas. But, this paticular Frye... and the dates is of interest... do you have more on him? His parents and WHERE he came from????
