David Blair 1540

David Blair (see the chart below) was born about 1540 in Adamton, Ayr, Scotland and migrated to Wexford, Ireland, where he named his new home Adamtown. David's existence is verifiable from his Will dated 04 Nov 1581 in both Adamton, Ayr, Scotland and Adamtown, Wexford, Ireland. Nothing verifiable is known about his parents, siblings, wife or children - but being the first verifiable Blair in Ireland it is evident that the Blairs originally came from Scotland.

Disclaimer:
The above chart is a work in progress and is published as an informal guide to assist family researchers find their own ancestral Blair connections in Ireland. Not all births and marriages were officially recorded and, of those that were, not all have been checked yet. So, the people listed may not yet be in the right place and some people may have been missed altogether. As people are checked, put in their right places and given a posting, a link to them will appear on the chart but, as Blair is one many ancestral family names being researched -- it is NOT a current family name -- this process will take time. People with a current and particular interest in the name are advised to do formal research (and publish the results online so that others can benefit from shared information).
