Nathan Frary was of Boody Brook in what is now South Deerfield, Massachusetts. He served in the French and Indian War (1754-1763). In Ebenezer Arms' day book is an entry in 1751, naming Frary as a debtor for having shoes made for Abijah. This refers to Abijah Prince, who was once enslaved by Benjamin Doolittle of Northfield, Massachusetts. Doolittle died in 1749, and it is unknown whether Nathan Frary was Abijah's next enslaver or whether he was paying for Abijah's shoes for another reason.
