General Notes: Husband - David Frazier


He was born in Maryland. When seven years of age he went with his parents to Washington County, Pennsylvania, where his home was the remainder of his life, and his business, farming.

He was a man of fervid piety, one of the leading members of the Presbyterian Church of his neighborhood, and lived a life of noble Christian deeds. He was appointed justice of the peace in 1815, and held the office until 1834. He was a just man and a peace-maker, always urging those disposed to go to law an amicable settlement of their differences. In 1834 he was elected a member of the General Assembly of Pennsylvania, and served one term.

The days of his boyhood and youth were passed on his father's farm in Finley township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, a few weeks in the winter season being devoted to attending the primitive subscription schools of the neighborhood. While yet a young man he was married and then purchased a farm in the township, where he passed the rest of his days engaged in general agriculture. He had in early life studied civil engineering, which he followed to some extent in the county. [CBRWC, 1374]
