He was born in North Okaw, Illinois in Dec 1879. I do not have an exact birth date. His father was James Blair born in Ohio about 1850. James married a Pelina ?. James Blair had several children. The following are the only ones I know of and there may be more. Susan, Alfred, Robert & Joseph Blair. With Joseph being my great grandfather. This Blair family lived in Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Nebraska for sure. My great grandfather Joseph Blair was married to a Claire Richards for a short period of time. They were married about 1900 and I believe divorced by 1903. I am trying to locate anyone who knows this Blair family and can shared information with me. I would like to know more about my great grandfather and where he may have died. Thanks so much for any help you may be able to lend.
