NOTES: J Evans

Nancy, who may be an Ann or an Agnes, was born 1785-1788, predicated on her 1804 marriage to Alexander Frazer and the birth of two sons listed on the 1810 census. BUT if she is the 40-49 year old female in Oliver's 1840 HH, her dob would be 1791, and she would have been b. in Kentucky.

Alexander died "when the children were young," apparently prior to the 1820 census.

James, b. c1806, died as a young man.

Oliver, b. 1808, d. 1864. Oliver was a portrait painter of some note. An 1823 listing of Transylvania students shows his "Residence: Lexington, Rooms: R. Frazer's."

If Oliver is living with his Uncle Robert in 1823, where are Nancy and James? When did James die?

Nancy was the youngest of Thomas and Agnes' children but seems to have the least information available. There is a 40-49 year old female in the HH of Oliver Frazer in 1840. If Nancy was born a little later that estimated above she would fit this slot.
