The Fraynes came over with the Normans as De frene which means owner of ash trees. The spellings of the name come as Frene, Freney and Frayne, We have a long traceable history which varies from the Fulkes de Frene of Ireland (Gentry with a coat of arms) to Laurence Frayne who was a gentleman but one of the criminals deported to colonate Australia. I can trace my branch of th tree back to Devon shipwreckers of 1699. |

My gg grandfather was Patrick Frayne (or Frane) from Sligo, Ireland. I cannot find any information on him but know that he was entered as Deceased on the marriage certificate of his son John to Annie Griffiths 10/10/1883 in Pontypridd Register Office. Glamorgan. |
