Biography
Son of John Blue III and Mary (Marshall) Blue. Married (1st) to Elizabeth Duke (1747-1773), married (2nd) in 1784 to Mary Marshall (1764-1847). Garrett was a farmer. He inherited a half share with brother Michael, of Lot 31 on the South Branch of the Potomac River, about five miles north of Romney, West Virginia (then Virginia). He also inherited a one-fourth share in the New-Survey, a lot containing 203 acres nearby. According to family records, Garrett moved his family to the part of Hampshire Co. bordering on the North Branch of the Potomac, about two miles below Patterson's Creek. There he had a farm of 640 acres. Garrett's will was written in 1832 and was probated in 1835 in Hampshire Co. Final settlement of his estate was accomplished in Hampshire Co. in 1849, simultaneous with the settlement of Mary's estate. Wife Elizabeth was born in Ireland. Wife Mary was the daughter of John and Deborah Marshall.
