Thank you. I will check out some of those counties.

As to "Blair" I am not searching it as a surname. I have a missing half-uncle, Blair Pearce, who shows in the 1930 USFC in Fayette Co., IN, age about 21 and nothing more on him. He might have spelled his name "Pierce," or changed his name because his parents had died when he was an infant and he was raised by his maternal grandparents. But he was so close to being given a social security number. I did find a Blair Pearce line in Arkansas, but could not find that they related to him. My Higgins were from Harrison, Montgomery and Fleming Co., KY through Scott Co., IN (some were in Rush Co., IN too). I know the name Wiley comes up with Pierce families from NC or SC who migrated down from MA or CT; might be related to mine way back. Thank you for the kindness of your lookups.
