During his life time, David researched the history of several Decatur and Henderson County families. His research provides important basic research on the history of families that now live or have lived in these two counties. Like all research, it is not perfect and is known to contain both errors and omissions. By policy, David's original research will not be updated to correct these errors but will be maintained in the state left by David. However, we are happy to publish the family research of any families connected with Decatur or Henderson County. We will also publish comments as notes to David's research. Please email me your comments and/or family research that you would like posted to this web site to Jerry L. Butler at jlb30504@gmail.com.

"From a Dr. Brown, Jane Hays Frizzell acquired a mortgage on a farm at Bible Hill; and about 1879 or '80 she foreclosed and moved to a log house on this farm, which old-timers called the Bobby Box place. Later, when a new house was built, her son John who married in 1887 continued to live in the log house, and four of his children were born there." [A Frizzell Family Record]

Census records show his family living in Bedford County in 1830 and in Coffee County in 1840. Sometime between 1843 and 1850 the family

moved to Henderson County, Tennessee where Abraham met the woman he married in 1858. "The Hays family lived in the Decatur County community of Beacon near the Henderson County line; and in this vicinity Abraham Frizzell and Jane Hays married and had a family consisting of twins, John James and Rebecca Frances, born in 1860 and another son George Washington Frizzell, born in 1862. "Abraham served in the Union Army, as did three of his brothers. Enlisting at Jackson, Tennessee in 1862, he served as a private in C Company of the Seventh Cavalry Regiment, Tennessee Volunteers; was captured in a battle at Union City, Tennessee in 1864; and died while a prisoner of war in Charleston, South Carolina. Although the cause of his death and his burial place are not known, there was a train wreck in Charleston which killed many Union soldiers who were being transferred to another prison and a returning soldier told the family that he had seen Abraham in Andersonville Prison in Georgia. He may be one of 4,000 unknown Union dead interred in the Beaufort National Cemetery, Beaufort, South Carolina. Several men of his regiment are buried there. [A Frizzell Family Record] Children:

Census: 1880, in Decatur Co., TN. Occupation: Farmer. "Although living in a rural area and in somewhat isolated circumstances, George Frizzell followed politics and world events with great interest, mainly through the newspapers to which he subscribed. A Republican and a Methodist, he was a man of firm convictions and responsible citizenship. He took pleasure in watching the local sandlot baseball games and enjoyed having company. Because of its proximity to the two churches in Bible Hill, the George Frizzell home was the one where the circuit riding ministers most often came for Sunday dinner -- much to the dismay of the chldren in the family who had to wait and eat around the second table. "The Frizzell house had four rooms, a tin roof, front porch with dog-trot, and a stone chimney. The family took pride in having the best well water in the vicinity and were always able to offer a dipper of cold water from a freshly drawn pail to visitors on a hot summer day. "George Frizzell was content to farm his land and be head of his household. He was a man of medium height and a fair complexion and was a quiet man by nature, becoming even more so in later years when he became hard-of-hearing. He lived to be eighty-five years old, enjoying the love and respect of wife, children, and grandchildren. He and the home he established, with its air of tranquility, love, and gentle humor, live on in memory." [A Frizzell Family Record]
