Cicero N. Frederick was born August 1839 as the first child of Ransom Frederick and Joanna Walton Frederick. He is found living with his family in both the 1850 and 1860 US Federal Censues. He served in the Civil War. On May 5, 1861, he enlisted in Company A, North Carolina 24th Infantry Regiment, being captured late in the war, imprisoned at Point Lookout, Maryland, and accredited with Distinguished Service.
On December 24, 1865, he married Martha Long Tapp, widow of William D. Tapp, who may have died in the Civil War. She brought to the family two sons: Reuben Tapp; and Monroe Tapp. No children by Cicero N. Frederick and Martha Long Tapp Frederick are known.
The 1870 US census entry for the Cicero Frederick family shows the two Tapp boys with the surname of their step-father. Martha Walton, age 55, is living in the household (born c. 1815). This most likely is Cicero's aunt, the sister of Cicero's mother, Joanna Walton. Cicero is shown with real property worth $400 and personal property worth $75. His occupation is "Keep gris mill". Neighbors in 1870: Holsomback; Royster; Yellock; Brooks; Paylor; Walker; Sawson; and Brooks (second Brooks family).
The 1880 US census (Olive Hill Township, Person County, North Carolina) entry does not show Martha Walton. However, it does include in the household Monroe Tapp (age 18, born c. 1862) and Alice Tapp (age 17, born c. 1863). They are identified, respectively, as son-in-law and daughter-in-law. Monroe Tapp is step-son of Cicero Frederick, and Alice Tapp is the wife of Monroe Tapp. They were married during the census year of 1880.
Cicero and Martha are last seen in the 1900 US Census. It is possible that they both died before the 1910 US Census or that they were living with Reuben or Monroe Tapp (also shown as Tap). Reuben and Monroe were blood children of Martha and step-children of Cicero. Cicero and Martha are shown living beside Monroe Tap (Tapp) at the time of the 1900 US Census.
Note that the Olive Hill Township area was west central Person County with the main road being the one that ran to Leasburg and then on to Yanceyville. Another road ran to Milton.
The 1880 US census sheet on which one finds Cicero and Martha Long Tapp Frederick also has an entry for Haywood Foushee, three families above. Cicero's sister, Elizabeth (Betty or Bettie) married Haywood Foushee. That families married into nearby families in the 1800's was common.
No burial location has been found for Cicero N. Frederick or Martha Long Tapp Frederick, who apparently died before enumeration of the 1910 US Federal Census.
