I know that my gggggggggrandfather settled in the
Marsh Creek Settlement (Gettysburg) Pa. His name was David Frazer. He died 1781 in Washington County, Pa where he had another farm. He acquired a 250 acre farm in Gettysburg in 1738. He married and had a son Samuel(1745-1832) who married Rosannah Creighton. Samuel's mother died most likely in childbirth or travel.
David remarried Jennet______.
They had six more children John,Robert,Francis,Jennet,
Elisabeth and Sarah. It was while in Washington County
late 1700's the spelling became Frazier. I have his deeds, will etc. I know where his land was located and
where Samuel my ggggggggrandfather lived and settled
and all the way down through. I haven't been just guessing
but doing a lot of research and making copies, copies,
copies. I know what happended to his other children and
I know Samuel's line down to me. I don't know where David
came from and how he got to Marsh Creek Settlement in
PA or his wife's name. Samuel's mother. I would appreciate any help. We figure he was born 1710 or
1720 in Scotland but have no way of knowing since we can
only trace him back to Gettysburg PA. He also willed some
land he owned in Washington County PA on King's Creek.
I am still trying to research that area in Washington
County. Names changed, States became states, County
lines formed and changed. This has not been an easy
journey with David but it sure has been a lesson in
not only family beginnings but history. Thank you
