General Notes: Husband - Samuel Blair

---

He obtained his educational training in the pioneer schools of Girard township, Erie County, Pennsylvania, and he continued to live on the old Blair homestead until moving in 1878 to a farm he had purchased, and there he lived until he was eighty years of age, improving his land and erecting its buildings. About 1901 he bought a beautiful home on Main street in Girard in which he spent the evening of his long and useful life, retired from the active cares of a business life. He still owned his old homestead farm. He was a Republican politically, and the local offices are all that he has desired to fill.
He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian church in Girard, in which Mr. Blair long served as an elder.
