Father Nimrod FRASHURE, d. CA 1839 Mother Sudna CHILDERS, b. CA 1778 Family ID F19879 Group Sheet | Family Chart
Family Hannah BEE, b. CA 1826, Preston Co, (W)VA Married 17 Sep 1871 Doddridge Co, WV [4] Notes - Based on census records, Hannah was born as early as 1822 or as late as 1832, with her marriage record putting it in between at about 1826. Although the earliest record appears to be the most reliable, there still remains the conflict that Jonathan married Martha Howard in 1817, and Hannah's mother was reportedly Margaret.
1880 Census, Lewis Co, WV (Freemans Creek District), enumerated on Jun 26 1880:
William Frazier, 68, farmer, suffering from dropsy; wife Hannah, 50; sister-in-law Mariah, 41; nephew Nimrod, 16; nephew William G, 11; nephew Harvey L, 6.
(Note: The birthplace for everyone was West Virginia. The birthplace for Hannah's father was New Jersey, and Virginia for her mother, while the birthplace for both of Mariah's parents was listed as New Jersey. This is at variance from the Virginia birthplace that is found for Mariah's mother in her marriage record and all census records. It does lend credence, however, to the idea that Hannah was a half-sister to the rest of her father's children.)
The following enumeration pertains to William and his family with his first wife:
