  2. 11.  Elizabeth Reasor was born on 29 Sep 1793 in Virginia; died on 15 Sep 1850 in Henry Co, Kentucky; was buried in Raisor Cem, Henry Co, Kentucky.

    Notes:

    daughter of Michael Reasor and Anna Hebert.

    Wife of Frederick Razor. Married July 9, 1817 in Shelby County Kentucky. The Razor, Smoot, and Clements families said to have come from Virginia to Kentucky through the Cumberland Gap with Daniel Boone.
    There are differences in genealogy claiming that Frederick Razor married first Elizabeth Fishbeck of the Germanna Colony family of northern Virginia. The marriage to Elizabeth Reasor in 1817 is verified. Frederick's ten children were born between 1818 and 1842.

    1.Michael March 18, 1818 - April 7, 1887
    2.Anna (Razor) Roberts FG # 28416130

    7. Louisa (Razor) Porter April 19, 1836 -
    9. Dulcenda (Razor) Roberts born 1842 -1919
    There was a later marriage of Frederick in 1852 to another Elizabeth, the widow of Pleasant Paris of Spencer County Kentucky. It appears to not be widely known that Frederick Razor died and was buried in Paris Cemetery Spencer County Kentucky, clearly in 1875 as per his tombstone photo beside Elizabeth (Esum) Razor c1800 to c1889, the last marriage (1880 Census).
