Arthur Frazier, whose first wife was Elizabeth Knott, daughter of John and
Mary Knott, went to Lincoln County, GA. Stephen Frazier, who I think (but
have no proof) was the son of Ephraim Frazier went with him. Stephen married
Jane ("Jincy"/"Jenny") Goodrum who was probably the sister of Arthur's
second wife "Polly" Goodrum. Arthur and Stephen left Granville County about
1806-7. Barnett Frazier followed later, around 1814-15, and settled in
Wilkes County, GA adjacent to and west of Lincoln County. An Ephraim

Mary Jo,
What kind of records do you have on Nancy Hester? I have seen information
posted that Abraham Crenshaw's wife was Nancy Hester. But I have yet to
find anyone who can point to the source of that information.

Sorry, I don't know anything about the Crenshaws.
Do you happen to know which James Knott she married? I see that Sterling

Laurel,
I have found the name William Hester as well as Henry Hester in my
Crenshaw-Hester information.
You asked about the name, Knott? Rebecca Knott was married
first to James Knott who died in 1801. She 2nd. married Thomas Crenshaw,
son of Abraham Crenshaw.
I am curious about Abraham Hester. Recorded:
22 May 1778 220 Abraham Hester enters 200a in Granville on waters of
Grassy Creek borders Landers, Daniel Malone, Nathaniel Malone and G.
Crenshaw; removed from no. 195; clain entered 24 July 177
The information at:
http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/print.cgi?wicker::8.html
says that Temperance Hester married Howell (Sowell) Frazier.
In case there should be any confusion, she married Sowell Frazier, who was
the son of William Frazier about 1783 and they later moved to Stokes County,
NC. Howell Frazier, who was the youngest son of Jeremiah Frazier, married
Nancy Hester, daughter of Mary and Henry Hester, in Virginia on 13 October
1817.

Carol,
Nancy Hester Crenshaw's name is on documents that my family has collected during their research which spans the past 60+ years. Abraham Crenshaw married Nancy Hester and they were the parents of William C. Crenshaw who married Elizabeth Hart in Granville Co., N.C.. I have their marriage record.
William and Elizabeth, with their large family, left N.C. and settled in Equality, Gallatin Co., Illinois. This is a court document filed in Gallatin County after the death of Nancy (Hester) Crenshaw Harp

I've been watching the HESTER info to see if there was a tie in with our
KNOTT and FRAZIER lines. Mary Jo sent the children of Abraham CRENSHAW and
Nancy HESTER -- which included a childs marriage with a KNOTT and a
different child with a FRAZIER.
