Do you know of Fraicheur ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Fraicheur. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Fraicheur.<1>

Our sources for Fraicheur (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Fraicheur other than they indicate that Fraicheur would be found somewhere in Oswego County, New York.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1892 and closed  in 1902.
