Lewis Frazee's father was Timothy Frazee born 1713 NJ, his mother was Hannah Freeman born Aug 17, 1730 NJ. Oliver and James were his brothers.
"Lewis Frazee was born November 6, 1763. (Probably emigrant to Staten Island.) He died November 15, 1835-8 in New Brunswick (?). Lewis had two brothers, William and Oliver. Either during or prior to the Revolution, Lewis and Oliver left the states and went to New Brunswick. It is stated that William went to Ohio. In Volumes 35-36, New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, the following loyalists are listed: John Fraser, drowned July 1808; William Frazer, Oliver Frazer, James Frazer, William Frazee, Jr., William Frazer, Sr., Lewis Frazier, or Fraser or Frazer, died 1835, age 72; Michael Frazier. Lewis Frazee petitioned the New Brunswick authorities for a lot on the Kennebecasis in 1788. William Frazee was another applicant. Oliver also petitioned for a lot in 1788 next to his brother, Lewis. (Records at Archives Office, St. Johns, N.B.). Lewis Frazee married Catherine Thorne (January 9, 1764-February 12, 1836) and lived for a while on Staten Island, New York. "
