Marker Text Richard Cason Frazier (d. 1856) and his wife Agnes (Clark) (d. 1875) settled on a land grant here in 1852. The site was later enlarged with the addition of adjoining property from the B. M. Bryan Survey, which provided timber and spring water. A portion of the land was donated in 1883 by Richard's son John for the construction of a schoolhouse and nondenominational church building. The area surrounding the site became known as the Frazierville community. Family members have owned the site for over 125 years.
