The Alamo Defenders: John Blair

BLAIR, JOHN
(1803-1836)

Born in Tennessee, John Blair registered as a married man for a league of land on February 19, 1835.  It is believed he was one of the many volunteers who joined James Bowie on the Siege at Bexar as well as the Alamo in early 1836. 

Louis Rose, who left the Alamo before the final battle, later testified that he "left [John Blair] in the Alamo 3 March 1836".  Blair died in battle on March 6, 1836.
