Fraser Origins Although the Fraser name was first associated with the district of Tweeddale on the Scottish borders, its exact origins remain undetermined. The early recorded spelling forms included de Fresel, de Friselle, and de Freseliere, which would indicate a French locational origin, possibly in Anjou. But there was and is no place in France corresponding to any of these names. Some Fraserologists nevertheless see a French connection. During the 18th century, Simon Fraser, while in exile in France, declared an alliance with the French Marquis de la Frezeliere and claimed common origin from "les seigneurs de la Frezelieres." Fraser may be derived from the French fraise, meaning strawberry, and fraisier, strawberry plant. The story goes that a nobleman from Bourbon named Julius de Berry entertained the King with a dish of fine strawberries. De Berry was later knighted and took strawberry flowers on his arms and adopted the name of Fraiseux or Frezeliere. A descendant of his was said to have been the lord of Neidpath castle in Scotland. Fraser, however, may in fact not be French at all. The word fraisse heraldically describes a strawberry and it is known that the early lands of the clan included an area at Neidpath in Tweeddale where strawberries would grow prolifically. The clan were then known as "strawberry bearers" from their coat of arms.
