Biography

Elizabeth Frazier was born about 1761. Elizabeth married Zachariah Frazier on 11 Sep 1782 at Granville, North Carolina. She was probably about 16 yoa when she married. [1]

Estimated birth date: Zachariah was born in 1761 and was about 49 years of age in 1800. The Census taken in 1800 indicates that his wife was less than 45 years of age in 1800; therefore, Elizabeth was probably born after 1765.

Great catch! That actually aligns with my estimated dob of 1866 for Hester that I have in the bio. I changed the data fields to match my estimated date. We need to see if Jeremiah Frazier lines up as her father using other records, but it makes sense.
Jeremiah Frazier is listed on the next page of the 1800 Census with 2 marriage age sons (assumption) and both he and his wife over 45. This would be a likely Father but would put Elizabeth's DOB closer to 1770 than 1760.
