Jerry, I think you may have information relating to my great-grandfather, Love Alexander....also born in Borden Springs, AL in 1831. Could he have been brother to William Vinson? I have been at a dead end because I didn't know Love's parents. Love married Leatha Ann Cross and they had 3 children, two died early but my grandfather survived...his name is John James Alexander. My aunt told me she thought his father may have been an Arthur but it was unclear. I have researched Arthur Alexander who married Rebecca Borden but came up empty. Do you have more information on this family? -Carolyn Miracle ----- Original Message ----- From: <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> To: <ALEXANDER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2007 3:35 PM Subject: Re: [ALEXANDER] More Alexander Info. > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Author: jerrysnow41 > Surnames: > Classification: queries > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.alexander/151.157.501.502.503.508.1.2/mb.ashx > > Message Board Post: > > I finally got a copy of Oklahoma death certificate for William Vinson > (Vincent or Venson) Alexander, born 2/19/1833 in Borden Springs AL, died > in Alex, Okla, 1/23/1920.
