John:

I have a nearly complete set of abstracted Iredell County deeds and of the
cemeteries for that county. I found no BLAIRS at all in the cemetery
books. I found only one entry for BLAIR in the deed books and even though
it was not for your Jacob and was later than the 1800 date that you
indicated, I will post it here just in case it is useful to you:

"Deed Book P, page 337. Dated 2 Aug 1828. Robert H. Carson to Sion
Harrington. For the sum of &800, a tract of land lying on the waters of the
Muddy Fork, joining Joseph Bogle, James, containing 336 acres. Signed R.H.
Carson. Witness: John Blair and William ----. Proved Aug. 1831. Registered
8 Sept 1831."

Was John a son of Jacob? Do these names and the reference to Muddy Fork
give you a general location for this BLAIR?
