The Rotary Club of Fanwood-Scotch Plains has undertaken to restore a Revolutionary War period farmstead, the Frazee House in Scotch Plains, a Union County landmark made famous through Elizabeth "Aunt Betty" Frazee's bread baking, which inspired a confrontation between her and British generals during the battle of Short Hills in 1777, involving the forces of General George Washington.

The house is significant as the home constructed by Gershom Frazee, a prolific and well-documented 18th-century carpenter and joiner. In addition to its historic association with Aunt Betty, the house is a typical and vanishingly rare example of eighteenth-century domestic vernacular architecture in central New Jersey.

The Gershom and Betty Frazee House has received official recognition on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service and in State of New Jersey with a listing on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places in the New Jersey State Historic Preservation Office.

The restoration project is carried out under the auspices of Fanwood Scotch Plains Rotary Frazee House, Inc., a tax-exempt 501. C(3) organization spawned in 2005 by the Rotary Club of Fanwood Scotch Plains as a Rotary International Millennium Project.
