Notes
a. Note:   H67
Note:   Thomas Frizzell is a renaissance man of many talents. In addition to being a farmer and raising corn, tobacco, and distilling whiskey, he possessed the tools used by a cooper and appears to have made his own casks for whiskey, the tools used by a cobbler for making shoes, and the tools of a blacksmith. He also possessed a stable of fine horses and his estate included eleven of them. It is believed that he raised and trained trotters and enjoyed the sport of horse racing which was a popular attraction during the early pioneer days in southeast Missouri. Nicholas Counts was a neighbor and friend and he was a known expert with trotters according to his obituary and they probably engaged in many competitive races with a wager or two on the outcome. He was fined more than several times for violating the local Blue Laws for racing his trotters on Sundays.
  During the War of 1812 Thomas Frizzell served in a Company of Mounted Militia commanded by Capt. Thomas Alsbury of the 1st Regiment of Kentucky Mounted Volunteers, and was discharged on October 30, 1812 in Hopkinsville, Christian County, Kentucky. Following the War of 1812, Thomas Frizzell and his family moved across the Mississippi River to the Territory of Missouri and settled near St. Michael.
  On June 10, 1839, Thomas Frizzell executed his Will and it was witnessed by Jerimah Spencer, Fred T. Overfield, and Napolean B. Allen. The Will made provisions for his wife Mary Ann Frizzell and his ten children. Thereafter on September 3, 1842 he executed a second Will which again provided for his wife Mary Ann and the 10 children born of his previous marriage[s] and in addition provided for John J. Frizzell, Jefferson Frizzell, and any and every other son or daughter born unto the testator thereafter. The Will written on June 10, 1839, was proved and admitted to probate on February 8, 1845, in the Circuit Court in session at the Madison County Courthouse, Fredericktown, Missouri, and it can be surmised that his death was probably within a week prior to the filing of the Will. On March 13, 1845, Mary Ann Frizzell as widow and relict of the late Thomas Frizzell, deceased, claimed her rights to his estate as his widow. However, it was not until May 1, 1848 that the second and superseding Will was attested to and admitted to probate in the Circuit Court, over three years after the earlier Will had been admitted to probate. The second Will recited that he was ratifying and confirming this and no other to be his last Will and Testament, so in effect he revoked the first Will when he executed the second Will.
