Hi all eighteen of us!! I was looking last week for a list for Geauga County and was disappointed there was not one, and now here we are!! I am researching the name of BLAIR in Geauga County. It appears that my AUSTIN ADELBERT BLAIR started out in Portage County and then moved into Geauga Cty. Here's my information and I hope someone out there might be working on the same line. Please contact me if you are. I am trying to determine Austin's exact date of death, and where they might have lived in Geauga County. I'd like to trace this line through to descendants of Benjamin Blair, as I already know the ancestry. 1.
