I descend from William Alexander who moved from Virginia to Elbert County, Georgia, in the mid-1770's. He married first Frankie Rucker and second Nancy Shackelford. I am pretty confident in this ancestor based on his will and other documentation. I am not so confident on his father. I think his father was the James Alexander (maybe s/o Archibald Alexander) that you mention below. I have also seen the birth date problem if 1722 is correct. I would also appreciate any information on this family. Thanks, Craig Alexander cwalex87@yahoo.com PVergilius@aol.com wrote: This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

Do you have any information to help me resolve a problem with a supposed son named James by his first wife, Margaret Parks? I am descended from a James Alexander, father of George (b. 1754), father of Sarah (b. c. 1780) who married Robert Taliaferro Gaines, and this James is often said to be a son of Archibald and Margaret Parks Alexander. Yet I have doubts about the information I've seen posted on the Internet concerning this James. Some genealogies do not list him at all among the children of Archibald and Margaret Parks Alexander. Others list him, but assign him a birth year of 1722, when his mother was only ten years old! A very few list him with a birth year of 1736. And those genealogies that include him often list the month, date, and year of birth of each of Archibald's other children, but for this James they give only the year. I once thought that he might be the son of Archibald and his second wife, but that James was born much too late to be the father of the 1754 George. I also have wondered whether he might be a son of one of Archibald's brothers, or possibly an illegitimate son of Archibald himself. I would appreciate your help in solving this problem.

Attention: Georgia Mason Re: Sarah Catherine Alexander In 2002 I received an email from Georgia Mason. I was researching Sarah Catherine Alexander who married Joseph R. Waldrop in the early 1850s. Georgia said Sarah Catherine Alexander was her gr grandfather, Samuel S. Alexander's sister. Sarah Catherine Alexander and Joseph R. Waldrop were married in Crittenton, Arkansas. They were married and divorced. I do not know if there were any children involved. I do know she married again and I have his name in my Family Tree Maker. I would love to talk to Georgia and see if she has any more information and also share with her what little I have. If anyone on the list knows of the Alexander and Waldrop marriage, I will be happy to exchange information. Thanks for any help.

Alexander who was in the service during WWII? We knew him as Alex in our family. He use to spend his off duty time at my husband, Buzzy (Squeek) and his brothers and sisters folks house in the early 40's, near the Navy Hospital in north end of Seattle,Wa. We still talk about Alex and wonder what ever happened to him after the war was over. He went to Calif. after he was stationed in the Seattle area and we lost track of him. Folks didn't keep track of each other as easily then as now with cell phones and computers. I volunteered to try to find Alex for them or maybe some of his family. I have located a number of my own family on Rootsweb doing my family history so thought I'd start trying for Alex the same way. It seems that he was from N.C. but time erases a lot of my memories. I'm sure Alex would still remember Buzzy, know also as Squeek and his older brother Bob and sister Izzy, younger sibs James, Donna, Lila, Maxine, Jerry, Audrey, Joan and little Wardy, now all grandparents and some great grandparents. We wonder who he married and how many kids they have and how they are doing and where any of the family lives now. Can anyone out there help me find these folks? As we get older, our old friends seem to mean more and perhaps because we have more free time to THINK about and REMEMBER all the good times when we were younger. Appreciate your sharing with anything you can help me with locating these folks. Thank you and Aloha, Lorraine lea_art7@yahoo.com
