Here
are the Adair ancestors of our testers and others that we hope to
find descendant testers for. Tests from descendants of various sons
of each are sought to fully establish the DNA picture of the line,
i.e. matching results from two different sons confirm the father. If
you have other Adair lines to contribute or if there is a more
popular or better understood way to represent these lines, email
here.

Alexander
Adair - #59962 - Contact.
Alexander Adair (b. ca1750 Ireland, d. bef 1820 Laurens SC) and
wife Mollie Steele arrived in South Carolina in 1767. They settled in
Jacks Township of Laurens County where Alexander applied for and
received a land grant in 1784-6. There were already other Adairs in
Jacks Township, but records are inconclusive as to any relationship
and this test does not match #N12485 (Joseph Adair of Laurens).
Alexander Adair and Ann McClure were fined for bastardy in 1786;
Stephen Braddock (ca1786-1850, ancestor of this tester) was the son
born at that time. Ann McClure later married Francis Braddock and
Stephen was raised with the Braddock name. Stephen and wife Mary Bell
of Laurens SC moved to Tippah MS. (More information on Stephen
Braddock and Alexander Adair here).
Traditional listings of the children of Alexander
Adair and Mollie Steele show: Anna
b. 1776, md. Holloway Prater, Benjamin,
Jean md. Brewer
Phillips, John, Robert
Washington b. ca 1796, md. Hannah Theresa
Prater, and Tobithia.

Alexander Adair and Mollie Steele.
William
C. Adair - #B22507 - Contact.
William C. Adair (1810-1886) was born in the Indiana Territory,
then lived and died in Indianapolis. I know from the 1880 census that
his parents were both born in South Carolina, but that is all I have
on them.
