From FindAGrave:
Elizabeth Baxter and James Fry were married 10 September 1808, Fayette County, Kentucky.
There were two children buried here in Buffalo Cemetery:
Emily Fry, b. 29 May 1816 in Kentucky, died 31 Oct 1851 in Pike County, Missouri. On 29 May 1816, Emily married her first cousin Jacob Fry, b. 10 Oct 1810, Kentucky, died 18 February 1889. Both are buried Buffalo Cemetery, as is Jacob's second wife, Mary Ann Kelso.
Jacob Young Fry, born 1821, died 1896, was the son of Elizabeth Baxter and James Fry. Jacob Y. Fry married Elizabeth C. Jorden, 21 Nov 1844, Pike Co, MO. Jacob and Elizabeth and their children can be found in the Pike County censuses 1850-1880. They are also buried Buffalo Cemetery.
Seven other children were named in the probate records of James Fry during the years 1822-1827. America, Polly, Nancy, William, Noah, Jacob, and Elizabeth. All the children were underage when their father died - Jacob Baxter, no doubt kin of Elizabeth, acted as their guardian.
A Noah Fry who died in 1834, in his 16th year, and buried Buffalo Cemetery, is likely the Noah named in the probate records.
