Note | BIRTH: His birth is not recorded in Branford records where James and Joanna were thought to be living, but it is known he is the son of James because they served together in the Revolutionary War in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. His name appears in the Valley annals bracketed with James Frisbie in several instances. His entry in the 1810 census leads us to believe he was born about 1765. ("Edward Frisbie of Branford and his Descendants," Vol 1, by Nora G. Frisbie, FHL book 929.273 F917fn, Vol. 1, p. 67.) Since he bought land in 1782 in Bethlehem, he must have been 21 by then. REVOLUTIONARY WAR 1779 on a pay list with James Frisbie on an expedition raised under General Sullivan which circled through Pennsylvania and New York, destroying Indian villages in reprisal for the Wyoming Valley raid. They are on a pay list of April-May, 1780. ( "Edward Frisbie of Branford and his Descendants," Vol 1, by Nora G. Frisbie, FHL book 929.273 F917fn, Vol. 1, p. 66.) 1779 on a pay list with his father James Frisbie on an expedition raised under General Sullivan which circled through Pennsylvania and New York, destroying Indian villages in reprisal for the Wyoming Valley raid the year before. They are on a pay list of April-May, 1780. ( "Edward Frisbie of Branford and his Descendants," Vol 1, by Nora G. Frisbie, FHL book 929.273 F917fn, Vol. 1, p. 66.) In Dec. 1780 a party of John Butler's English Rangers attacked the settlement of Shawney in Wyoming Valley and carried off 7 prisoners, including James and Jonathan Frisbee. They were taken to Niagara and Montreal. Eventually they were released or escaped. One of the men, and perhaps all 7 of them, is known to have escaped to Poultney, Vermont where the cousin of James lived. (Edward Frisbie of Branford and his Descendants," Vol 1, p. 66.) NEW YORK: In 1783 both James Jr. and Jonathan are amongst applicants to New York State for lands for the families "Destressed and Drove from here by the Savages in 1778." ("Edward Frisbie of Branford and his Descendants," Vol 1, p. 64-5.) LUZERNE PA The town of Hanover was also sold by the Susquehanna Company. In Windham, CT on June 12, 1771 the 540 settlers who had bought shares in the Township of Hanover were told they should “go forward and take possession of our lands at Wyoming by the first day of June instant…” Jonathan Frisby’s land was noted to be part of Lot No. 28, originally drawn by Silas Gore who sold out in 1775. The History of Hanover Township, and also a History of Wyoming Valley, In Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, by Henry Blackman Plumb, Wilkes-Barre, PA, FHL book 974.832 H2p, pp. 14, 173. Jonathan Frisby of Hanover, signed the Oath of Allegiance January 30, 1787 (The Susquehannah Company Papers, ed, Robert J. Taylor, Vol. IX, p. 15. FHL book 974.8 H2su.) On April 21, 1787 he signed a petition of support for the state of Pennsylvania as governing force for the Wyoming Valley people. (Susquehannah Company, Vol. IX, p. 107.) Land Records. The only land record for Jonathan Frisby in Luzerne Co is Vol 1, p. 205, FHL film 964.832. Jonathan Frisby of Wilksbarre in the County of Luzerne sold land in the district of Hanover to Rufas Bennet of Wilksbarre, which land is "under the Connecticut claimants..." Dec. 3, 1789. BETHLEHEM, CT Bethlehem, Litchfield Conn. Land Records 24:22 and 26:144 are records for Jonathan Frisbie who sold land in Bethlehem to Noah Frisbie and bought from Samuel Warner. All from Woodbury 1783 and 1782. His land bounds on Noah Frisbie. If this Jonathan is the son of James, he came to Woodbury/Bethlehem after escaping from the British in 1780. Perhaps both James and Jonathan came to Bethlehem then, Jonathan bought and sold land, and went back to Luzerne Co. BRADFORD CO PA In 1812 his farm was divided off Luzerne County into Bradford County. In 1812 he served as a juror in the first court of Bradford Col. Soon afterwards he emigrated to Morgan Col, Ohio where he appears on the 1820 Census there. ("Unclassified Frisbie Families," by Nora G. Frisbie, FHL book 929.273 F917fa p. 280-281.) 1790 CENSUS: Luzerne Valley, Pennsylvania ("Edward Frisbie..." p. 67 for all census information.) 1810 CENSUS: Bradford County, Pennsylvania (In 1810 it was still Luzerne County, but was divided off in 1812.) 1820 CENSUS: Marietta, Ohio DEATH: He made his will in Morgan County, Ohio in Sept. 1821. |

Note | Bradford Co., Penn. recorded a big family for this couple, apparently because they had been married and had children in the area of Luzerne County which became Bradford County in 1812. There appears from Morgan County records there may have been an earlier marriage for both of them. |
