My Alexander relatives came from North Carolina (haven't quite verified where) to Southeast Missouri then on to Union County. My grandmother lived in Missouri most of her early years, her mother died when she was very young and the family was split up. She married a cousin of hers and her mother-in-law's maiden name was Alexander. They have me going in circles trying to figure it out, she was very tight lipped about giving out any information.

Hello, Looking for leads on the parents and relations of Mahulda Jane CRAIG who married William Giles CAMPBELL 7 Aug 1854 in Union County. I believe Mahulda (also shown as Matilda in the census) had a sister Sophia Gunther Craig who married John Hunsaker. John Hunsaker are missing in the 1860 census. Sophia and three of their children are living with Mahulda and her husband William G. Campbell in the 1860 census. Mahulda was born 7 Nov 1834 and died 17 Aug 1884. She is buried in the Jonesboro City Cemetery. In 1860 census she lived in Jonesboro, in 1870 census Anna, and Meisenheimer Precinct in the 1880 Census.
