Lucy Shiflett and John Frazier

Submitted by: Wendy Mathias mathwendy27@gmail.com

Comments: There have been some questions raised about whether Leland Hardin's father was John Frazier who m. Lucy Shiflet in 1811, because Leland used both the Shiflet and Frazier surnames during his life. The suggestion that he switched names to avoid the notoriety of murdering his brother-in-law Burton Shiflett in 1860 offers only an interesting observation but no conclusive explanation. Whatever the rumors or gossip, Leland is named as a son of John Frazier in Greene Co. deed of 8 November 1844 (see below), which is sufficient proof to place him as a son of John Frazier and Lucy Shiflet.

Note: Unlike the Shiflets, whom we figure are ALL related, there were many Frazier families living in the same area and time periods who, as far as we can determine from records, are not related to each other.
