No, fractional distillation was used to make brandy, whisky, perfumes, etc. long before there was an oil industry. However in those cases the mixture being distilled usually only had 2 or 3 fractions to separate, whereas crude oil has dozens.

What is the advantage of simple distillation to fractional distillation?
Whether it is better to use fractional or simple distillation depends on the liquids being separated and on the boiling points of the liquids. When there is a great difference between the boiling points of the liquids, simple distillation may be a better option. Likewise, if there is a small difference in boiling points, then fractional distillation is used.
