My family tree dead ends at 1800 with Patrick Alexander (b. 1800 d. 1891) who married Mary Gillis. They had 7 children Margaret Alexander who married Henry Orr; William Alexander (b. 1823 d. 1882) who married Mary Anne Nicol; Mary Ann Alexander who married someone with the last name of Wark (she immigrated to the U.S. although we don't know where); Jane Alexander who married William Morrow; James Alexander (b. 1824 d. 1908) married Jane Geddes (Whom I am descended from); David Alexander (b. 1829 d. 1916) married Elizabeth Baxter; Susan Alexander (b. 1831) married William McCullagh. I'm not sure that this would help at all but you are the first person researching Alexanders that had some of them coming from County Tyrone so I had to try.
