It has been assumed that his birth was in the Dundee are as that is where the name origionates from i.e. The Glen of Dye, The River Dye runs into the River Dee. There were many Glendays in the Kirriemuir area near Dundee in the 18th Century who were Weavers. This could be where your Alexander come from. My George had two sons John b1791 and George b1797 both in Sleaford. Now had your Alexander have been born in Lincs then the generations would fit. It might be worth trying http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk I have just come accross this site and there appears to be a seachable database of official records from 1553!! Good Luck!!!
