I've recently arrived to the United States from Australia where my grandfather moved to early last century up until the he lived in scotland. My father John Daniel Gilfillan has a first cousin living in South Africa whose daughter lives in Vermont, I think. We have traced my mothers history back to England in the sixteenth century about time we put some efforts into the Gilfillans.

James Blair (born 1 May 1819 in Fairfield Co, OH) married Nancy Mills (born 6 Dec 1823 in Seneca Co, OH) on 2 Mar 1843.  They had (at least) nine children: Rachel Minerva (1844), Frances (1847), Eliza Jane (1848), Mary (1853, Austin B (1855), Arabella (1857), Wealthy (1859), Lincoln C (1862), Garcia M(1865).  James' parents were both born in Ireland.  I'm looking for the names of his parents.  His daughter Eliza Jane married George Daniels (b. 17 Jul 1839) in 1867.  They are my childrens'  ggg-grandparents.  Eliza Jane Blair Daniels died on 13 Oct 1920 and is buried in Blue Springs cemetery, Gage county, Nebraska

Thanks for all your work on this wonderful site.  My first American Blair connection was also a Robert Blair who settled in Lamington New Jersey in the 1750s and whose children spread from New Jersey to Indiana and Texas.  My great great grandfather was Alexander Blair who settled in what became Dallas.  I have a lot of history to report and will catch up soon with your site.  My New Jersey great great great grandfather Robert Blair owned property later given or sold to George Washington's hero spy John Honeyman.  (see New Jersey Historical Society web site). The property is in Lamington New Jersey where Honeyman is also buried along with a number of my relatives.  I am looking for the Scotland connections to Robert and your site appears to provide me with some wonderful resources.  Thank you for your service to our country.  My son in law is Captain Eric Kline, stationed in the Air Force in North Pole Alaska.  My daughter is Mariah January Klein.
 
My children were stationed in Mildenhall England and we took a trip to Stirling for a few days.  I am an aqaintance of the Chief of Police in Stiriling and his wife.  They are visiting Napa in September.  While in Stirling I felt so at home.  What a lovely part of Scotland.  In your many travels in the service, have you been there?
 
I noticed so many of the family names are much the same in your Blair line as in mine.  Please keep in touch if you find anything and I will as well.  Blessings to you and your family.

I was born Shona May Blair, in Dunfermline Fife in 1959 and have just begun researching my family tree. I have managed to get back to John Blair born Alloa/Clackmannan in 1592, married to Janet Eadie and then later Janet Rainie. I am struggling to get back any further than that, and whilst searching came across your website. A awful lot of work has gone into you website and congratulations to all involved. I shall carry on my search, although I feel I have hit a brick wall. Good luck to your and your team.

Hello, I am researching my Blair Family. We came from Blairgowrie in Perthshire (3 generations of James Blairs going back to 1800) It seems that before that we may have been in Coupar-Angus. These James Blairs were the product of women with the family names Murray, Duffus and Reid. James Reid Blair, my Great Grandfather, moved the family to Manchester at the turn of the 20th Century. We have drifted even further south since. I would be very pleased to hear from anyone who thinks that they may be connect with my family tree. Philip Blair.

My mother was Elva Blair 1917-2005. Six generations before, a William Blair (b1920 Dalry Ayrshire) emigrated to Australia from a line I have traced back to about 1700 in Ayshire and which has members in USA, Canada, NZ and all over Australia. I have many early Blair lines that remain unresearched and may lead to known families.

Hello, Hope you can help me? I have made several searches via your site (which is very interesting and informative!), but I'm having difficulty locating a certain person. Her name is Elizabeth Blair (below are the details I found on a Liverpool website): "Elizabeth BLAIR, late of 23 Kelvin Grove, Toxteth Park, Liverpool, widow, who died 4th Dec 1890, whose will was proved on 12th May 1891." Her address is an area in Liverpool 8 which is currently threatened with wholesale demolition. Her surname is particularily important, as it is the same surname of our Prime Minister (Tony Blair). I'm trying to find out if Elizabeth is in any way related? This would help our campaign a lot if she was related, as I and others are trying desperately to stop this shameful proposal of demolishing part of our history (and incidentally my own Mother's home - where she has lived for over 50 years!). I have found out that Tony Blair's father's name is Leo Blair and his father was James Blair (James adopted Leo). Hope you can help in some way and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Take care, Barbara
