Most of my resources are too early to contain your names, but I include some wills that might have a clue for you, either now,or in the future, when you've gotten a bit further back in your research. There are quite a few Banes in various book index, but no Bane...so, I've included the wills that contain the both names...Bane and Banes. There are no wills pre 1850 containing the name Frizzell.
