Hi Brooks-

Have you found him on WW1 draft Registration? Was he listed as a veteran on the 1930 census? Do you have information on his wife and children?
he wasn't a vet on the 1930 Census- I did however find a ww1 draft for a Robert Lewis Frasier in MS for a naturalization thing for the Draft But it didn't have a Court Jurisdiction for it it was 09-19-1919 or close too it He was a successful farmer in Madison County

I'm curious if you know if Edna was older or younger than Robert? Did she marry and have children?
Yes The Julia marie is his older daughter my grandmother's sister His wifes name was Mary Hart- He was divorced in March 1929 and remarried before 1930 census The draft info is not him he was born in Flora,MS- I can't remember how I found the draft info but it said MS no county info it wasn't on Ancestry.com
Yes I have The Degree of Divorce- but not the marriage for Mary Hart
His sister was older I think maybe younger not sure- The informant was a family friend of his second wifes his obit didn't give his parents names the funeral home didn't have any other information
His youngest daughter My grandmother just died last saturday- she stated that she knew very little about her dad and his ancestry
Thanks for the warm wishes- Hopefully I can break this Brickwall
