Scope and Content

Funeral card of Nickolas Frye [1827-1865] - husband of Elizabeth Toland, son of Peter Fry & Sarah Chapman. The funeral card states that he, "Died Mar. 24, 1865 / Aged 38y., 2m., 4d." Nickolas's death pre-dates this style of funeral card; it is very likely that his family actually ordered this card at the time of his widow Elizabeth's death in 1901. Her funeral card is an exact stylistic match to his. Original, no printer listed.
