General Notes: Husband - Reazen Frye
He attended an old log-cabin school, and assisted in clearing the pioneer farm. After marriage he and his wife located on a farm of 120 acres of land situated one mile from the Monongahela river, in Fallowfield township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and after years of assiduous toil finally succeeded in paying for the place. He then realized a good sum from the sale of a coal vein underlying his land, and with the money thus obtained he purchased 143 acres of land in Carroll township, to which, in 1874, he moved; it was distant about one mile from the business portion of Monongahela.
After he retired from active business life, he was interested in the buying and selling of stock. Politically he was originally a Democrat, but a visit to the South, some time prior to the breaking out of the war of the Rebellion, brought about a revolution in his ideas in respect to politics, and he was thereafter active in the ranks of the Republican party.
