When I signed up for the list I was given the option of having it sent to me as a digest. I get all the emails sent in one email. You must have signed up to receive individual emails and not the digest. I can't quite remember how to change it - something in your rootweb sign in.

LAND PATENT # 19, FOR 360 ACRES, WAS GRANTED TO ALEXANDER BLAIR AND FAMILY ON MARCH 24, 1740. THIS FAMILY, AS STATED IN THE LAND PATENT DOCUMENT AND THE HEADRIGHTS, INCLUDED ALEXANDER BLAIR, JANE BLAIR, JAMES BLAIR, MARY BLAIR AND JOHN BLAIR. THIS MAY BE A DUMB QUESTION BUT HOW DID ALEXANDER SWING THIS DEAL OF GETTING 360 ACRES RATHER THAN 250??
My mother was a Blair and I'm VERY interested in learning more about this lineage, but I'm about to drop this list-serve. PLEASE LEAVE INSTRUCTIONS WITH EVERY DIGEST ON HOW TO RESPOND TO QUERIES, AND INSTRUCTIONS TO USE IDENTIFIERS IN THE SUBJECT LINE SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO OPEN EVERY SINGLE MESSAGE AND FIND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR LINEAGE. I not a hypercritial person, but I've become so frustrated with what is supposed to be a digest form of this group and I'm getting messages that mean nothing to anyone except a singe recipient an individual should be corresponding to directly. Please, this could be such a valuable resource, lets clean up the act.

Good Morning Listers, Much of the information included in Tina's eight page document about Col. John Blair is posted on my website. If you want to view it, go to <http://www.tomsparrow.net/genealogy/> Scroll down to the input windows under SEARCH FOR NAMES. Enter Blair in the LAST NAME box. Enter John in the FIRST NAME box. Press the SEARCH button. You'll get a list of nine John Blairs. Col. John is on the top of the list. I believe he was born about 1725 in Worcester, MA. Click on his name. (It's red and underlined.) Everything on the site that's red and underlined is clickable. That will take you to his page. If you want to see his DESCENDANCY, click on that word in the line of words under his name. You can scroll down to Histories & Documents for some of my research and thoughts about Col. John. Please contact me with any questions or concerns. Have a great day. Tom Sparrow Allen Park, MI

----- Subject: "Scatterlings" Book Announcement Aventine Press has published a revised and updated edition of "Scatterlings: Blair, Williams & Turner to Texas---1858 to 1873" by Rusty Williams. Amazon.com has named the book its Regional Nonfiction Selection, and is currently offering the 230-page trade paperback at a 30% discount. Scatterlings is the true and touching real-life story of Southerners who settled the lands south of Texas' Red River at the midpoint of the nineteenth century. Using letters, contemporary accounts, local records and solid historical research, Williams follows three families from their Pittsylvania County, Virginia, tobacco farm through their arrival in Texas. He tells an all-too-tragic human story of where these pioneers came from, why they came to North Texas, how they lived when they arrived and the brutal hardships that wounded, killed and scattered them on the Texas wind. Scatterlings is now available through all major online booksellers, selected Borders and Barnes & Noble stores in Texas and Virginia, and by special order (through Ingram Distributing) from most independent bookstores nationwide.

I am seeking information on Richard Blair, born 1853 in Georgia, of parents born in South Carolina. Richard was in Texas by 1876 when he married Mary C. Ezell. He was in Belton, Bell County, Texas, in 1879 when a daughter was born. There were a number of Blairs in Bell County at that time and Richard could have been connected to one of those families. In 1880 he was in Huntsville, Walker Co., Texas, and listed in the census as a farmer. He and Mary had three daughters: Elizabeth (1877), Mary Ellen (1879) & Martha Lou (1882). Richard left the family shortly before Martha's birth. He became an employee of a railroad and died on a train somewhere near Austin, Texas, in about 1925. Richard had a sister who married a Myers and lived in Hayworth, Oklahoma, in the early 1900s. There were other Richard Blairs in Texas about the same time. One was Richard L. Blair, age 64 in 1920, born Alabama. Another was Richard Blair, age 82, born in Canada. The third was Richard W. Blair, age 47, born in Virginia. None of these are the Richard that I am seeking. I would appreciate any leads. Breck
