Notes for THOMAS SIDNEY FRAZIER:
Thomas Sidney Frazier was famous for making "willow chairs" which were
homemade chairs made from the branches of willow trees. Bill Frazier, his
grandson helped gather the limbs with his grandfather. It was said that
one of the chairs was on display at the Will Rogers Museum. Willard
Frazier said that Thomas or "Tom" as they called him worked in the
sawmills in Waynesboro TN, and later moved to Boyton OK for a short while
and worked in Oil Refinery. He went there because Guy Frazier, Horace
Frazier and Jarrett Frazier moved to Oklahoma for better work.
His Death Certificate has his DOB as March 17, 1849, but his headstone
has 1852. The 1852 date matches the census research and is likely
the correct date.
