Husband of 1-Lucy E. Jobes 2-Julia M McWade. Father of Almer Newton Blazer.

Blazer came to Lincoln County, New Mexico, in 1869 and bought into a ranch and sawmill on Tularosa Creek in what would eventually become part of the Mescalero Indian Reservation. Blazer and his wife hosted Billy the Kid and the Regulators when they were passing through searching for John Tunstall’s (memorial #26973877) killers. It was here that they had the shootout with Andrew L. "Buckshot" Roberts (memorial #7784499), during which both Buckshot and Dick Brewer (memorial #7785508) were killed.
