Frederick Parrott was born about 1717, probably in Berne, Switzerland. He came to Virginia in 1737. Frederick's wife was Barbara Edwards and they had several children, many of whom moved to Ohio. Frederick died about 1798. Of his children, his son Frederick married Elizabeth Keller.

Frederick Parrott is said to have been buried near Tom's Brook, Shenandoah County, Virginia. However, no evidence of the location of this cemetery (may have been on the family property) has been found. Does anyone have any record of the Parrott family or a family cemetery?
