BLAIR DNA Project: There is a very interesting genealogical project happening for Blair descendants right now. John A. Blair, owner of the BlairGenealogy.com domain has taken on administration of a Family Tree DNA project for the BLAIRs. To date there are 73 direct male Blair descendants that have submitted test kits of their DNA for analysis. The results are very interesting and for some, surprising! I won't give it away here, but I suggest that if you are a direct descendant (Surname Blair) of the Blairs, and male, that you investigate this project. If you are a female researcher, Family Tree DNA is working on the other side of the chromosones for you. In the meantime, if you know of a direct male descendant, encourage them to participate. Already there are several lines that now know, through this project, that they have a direct connection to the Blair of Blair line in Scotland. Other submitter lines have found new cousins! Both the Clan Blair Society and Blair Society for Genealogical Research endorse this project. BLAIR DNA Project The Blair Estate: The Blair Estate, outside Dalry, Ayrshire, Scotland has gone through a restoration/renovation to open its doors to corporate events and other visitors. Luke and Caroline Borwick have done a grand job on the ancient Blair home, assisted by their children. View the Blair Estate by visiting their web page at BlairEstate.com. If you know of anybody looking for a unique corporate experience in Scotland, pass on this link. They would be glad you did! NEWS ARCHIVE: Looking for an old article?
