I knew of the database for deaths from 1940 - 1997, but I did not know of this earlier database. I looked, and the only Alexander Ballantyne listed died in 1910 at the age of 65 (which isn't my Alexander). This IS helpful, though, because it means that he probably died in Pennsylvania where one of his daughter's lived.
