    2. Looking for these SC families. Would appreciate any help and am willing to trade information. Guy Thomas Houston, TX 281 444-1366 FAX 281 893-3475 [email protected] Blair, George and William, I am searching for information on George (b 1750) and William Blair (b 1739) in Ireland. Arrived Charleston South Carolina in March or before 1766, possibly Sept. 1765. They were Irish Protestants (possibly Presbyterians) that came and received Bounty Land in Belfast Township of Granville Country, South Carolina. Have copies of original land grants dated March 1766. Land promoters in South Carolina at this time were Arthur Dobbs and Matthew Rea that also had land in Georgia. It is said that Rea made a trip back to his home area County Down -- Lisburn, Ballynahinch and Dromore to recruit settlers.
