Blair Database

During the course of researching my Blair ancestors in Scotland I extracted over 11,600 birth/christening records and over 6,800 marriage records from Church of the Latter Day Saints Old Parish Records of the Established Church of Scotland (LDS-FHC OPR) indexes. These include the indexes for all Blair births, christenings, and marriages in Scotland that were included in the LDS-OPR indexes. 

I now have this information on the web in two searchable databases - one for BLAIR births and christenings and one for BLAIR marriages.

The map and chart below shows the distribution of Births/ Christenings and Marriages by County. The map is color coded to show the distribution of Births/Christenings by County. See the Key at the bottom.

This map is a modified version of the County Map of Scotland Compiled by Stephen Hew Browning and is used with his expressed permission. Click on the map to go to the original map which links to all the Counties of Scotland.
