Biography

Richard was supposedly in the Revolutionary War in Major's Co. as there are family papers to prove his service.

Richard is listed in the 1798 tax list for Fryeburg owning a house worth $400 with his brother Samuel as well as 302 acres worth $1371 as well as another parcel of 610 acres worth $549. [1]

Richard sold 10 acres of land 12 May 1823 to John Webster of Fryeburg for $30.00 on the road from Robert Page's to John H. Frye's land next to Benjamin Fiffield, Jeremiah Hutchins and Joseph Fessenden. The deed was witnessed by Richard Fyre Jr. and J. H. Eastman.[2]

Richard Frye and Richard Frye Jr. of Fryeburg sold to Justus Charles of Fryeburg for $50.00 7 Nov. 1830: "land layed to the original right of Joseph Frye, Esq. and assigned to the rights of Richard Frye being Sixth division lots lying on the easterly Side of the old Bean Pond Now the new River in said Fryeburg near what is called the Center of the Town...
