Hello Tom Green, Your email came, causing me to pause. I found it quite interesting but I was also left a little confused. I think you are referring to the Blair Society for Genealogical Research. I was able to find you in their membership directory. It would be less confusing to some if you had used their proper name since there's more than one Blair society. thank you, Helen Blair Clan Blair Society President 7516 E. Hermosa Vista Drive Mesa, Arizona 85207 www.clanblair.org ----- Original Message ----- From: "TOM GREEN" <tbgreen3@prodigy.net> To: <BLAIR-L@rootsweb.com> Cc: <nfrey@cwf.org> Sent: Monday, January 16, 2012 9:21 AM Subject: Re: [BLAIR] Original reason for Blair Society. Fellow Blair Society Members, Years ago I read with interest in the old first Blair Society News Letters, that the Blair Society was founded to purchase and preserve the home of Rev. James Blair, who started William & Mary College, the first college in what became the USA. As I recall one of the founding members of the Blair Society was a personal friend of John D. Rockefellow, Jr. who later purchased most of the abandoned homes of what once was Williamsburg, the capital of VA. and restored the town. Some years ago, my wife and I went to Williamsburg for the purpose of finding Rev. James Blair's home that the Blair Society purchased and restored. We had trouble finding the home because the town is "Trapped in the 1776's Tonight" for those of you old enough to remember the 1950's. We also found Rev. James Blair's brother's home, which is owned by a private owner, and someone lives there, so you can not visit that home. His son was appointed to the first U.S. Supreme Court by President George Washington, and rode to New York with the President when the country began! Recently, in the latest issue of the Colonial Williamsburg magazine, I read an article which gives the credit to Dr. William Archer Goodwin for getting John D. Rockefellow, Jr. involved in the restoration of Williamsburg. I am sure Dr. Godwin deserved much credit for his endeavors, but why was the Blair Society not even mentioned in this article? I support the Williamsburg Foundation primarily because of my life membership in the Blair Society, and have proudly told them of this story several times. I have included above the only E-Mail address I have found in the magazine, which is the address of Ned Frey, and is for advertising ONLY! There is an article in this last Colonial Williamsburg magazine written by President, Colin Campbell, and I whole hearted agree with his concern that our history is being lost and not taught in our public schools. I have two different sets of 50 full size flags and I spend much of my time going to schools and civic groups , not so much teaching our history, but trying to kindle an interest in our history! In Texas, where I live, if the information is not on a state wide test, the information is not being taught. Many of our children do not know who the President of the USA is, or who our first President was! Many do not know who Christopher Columbus was, or when or what he discovered! Last year on Columbus Day (October 12, 1492 just in case you have forgotten) I was speaking to a group of students in a town named for Columbus, and the children did not know who he was, or the names of his 3 ships! I could go on and on, and as my wife will tell you, I DO! However, my purpose is to ask some of our Blair Society members of "note" to contact the Williamsburg Foundation, the Colonial Williamsburg magazine and Rosanne Thaiss Butler, who wrote the article about William Godwin, and give all three the complete history of the Blair Society and ask that another article be published in the magazine telling the "Rest of the Story" as Paul Harvey would say.

I am responding to your confusion as the place of birth. Actually, all may be correct. I am attaching an URL that may give you some insight. It will give you an idea when the counties in TN were formed. Tennessee was initially two western most counties of NC. The same is similarly true for the relationship between VA and KY. There is also a strip of land across the top of TN that was or is part of KY or vice versa. New counties were created out others as the population moved west. see www.n2genealogy.com/tennessee/tn-maps.html Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
