Review: New genealogy book by Dr. Roger Grider BOOKS Book Review of Dr. Roger Grider's "The Family of James Blair and Nancy Day" which includes items about Adair, Russell Counties and these families: Mayberry, Womack, Demoss, Hudson, Rippetoe, Grider, Baldock, Smith, Sloan, Jennings, and Antle By Fredrick Eugene Blair A new genealogy book, The Family of James Blair and Nancy Day, by Roger D. Grider, is now available. Dr. Grider, a descendant, has spent many years studying his heritage and this massive volume is evidence of his meticulous and thorough research. This will be the landmark body of work in this line for all the generations coming after us. The author traces for three generations the descendants of James I and (Mary Colbert?) Blair who settled in Rowan (later Burke) County, North Carolina as part of the epic Scotch-Irish migration before the Revolutionary War. Paralleling this, he examines the Day family and especially those Days who moved into Rowan County in the latter part of the 1700s. The Days and the Blairs were closely allied for many generations as neighbors, friends and fellow travelers, and they intermarried to a great extent.
