      William Frazer (1701-1734) immigrated to Virginia from Scotland the place of his nativity, being a descendant of the ancient highland clan of Fraser of Lovat. Tradition states that he arrived at the port of Norfolk and lived a few years in that vicinity before moving to Fredericksburg, in Spotsylvania county, Virginia. He was living in Spotsylvania county by September 1, 1724 when he made a deposition regarding an Indian in which he states he is "aged about 23 years."

      William Frazer died in March, 1734 and on April 3, 1734 his widow Frances Frazer was appointed to administer his estate.

      By deed dated July 7, 1752 Isaac Darnall and Frances his wife, late Frances Frazer, and James Frazer, who married about 1752 Elizabeth Foster, daughter of Anthony and Martha Foster of Sotsylvania county.
