David, Thank you for all the documentation about Hubbards, Alexanders and others. It's something I want to hang on to. Hope all is well with you. I'm approaching my 68th birthday and until this past May had not had a really good physical exam in 40 to 45 years. After a scare on May 7 I scheduled an exam for a few days later and was then suspected of having cancer. About a week ago I got info from a biopsy that say's 'taint so. Feeling fine. -- Ben --- DAVID BROWN <dbrown544@prodigy.net> wrote: > Elizabeth Serilda (Alexander) Lynch Deeds (she > married Neptune Lynch on 11/13/1845): > > Randolph County, Missouri Deed Book G, Page 2: > This Deed made and concluded this __ day of July > in the year of our Lord Eighteen hundred forty seven > by and between Neptune J.

Ben, It's great hearing from you, and I'm glad to hear you are cancer-free. It sounds like you've had a very difficult summer. I've had close family members with cancer, so understand the scare you went through! I have more documentation on the Alexanders & Hubbards including that Chancery case from Garrard County, KY. Hopefully, I will have more time to transcribe this information (the chancery is fairly voluminous). However, I thought I would share the following deed from Mecklenburg County, which is interesting as it involves Samuel Alexander (father of James Alexander who died in Randolph Co., MO) and John Bertrand Dysart (father of James Dysart who later lived in Randolph Co., MO): "Genealogical Deed Abstracts, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, Books 10-14" by Herman W. Ferguson Mecklenburg County Deed Book #11 - 409, p 137. 11 Oct 1781. John Dysart of Burke, heir at law of James Dysart, decd, and Margaret (M) Dysart of Mecklenburg to Samuel Alexander, for 60 Pounds hard money of NC, 167 A in the Welch Tract on the south side of Rocky R adj the Barony Line and Thomas Wallace. Wit: Thomas Nickel and James Patton. Prvd in Oct 1782 Ct by oath of Thomas Nickel. Sam Martin CC. After Samuel Alexander died in 1784, his widow Sarah Alexander sold the land in 1788 per the following: "Genealogical Deed Abstracts, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, Books 10-14"by Herman W. Ferguson Mecklenburg County Deed Book #13 - 1459, p. 595. 14 Aug 1788. Sarah (X) Alexander, relict of Samuel Alexander, decd, to Dennis Copeland, for 45 pounds, 167 A in the Welch tract on the south side of Rocky R adj the Barony line and Thomas Wallace. Wit: Oliver Harris and John Lewes. Prvd in Jan 1789 Ct by oath of Oliver Harris. Jno. Rogers, clk. Pro. Tem. In 1789, Sarah Alexander appears in taxlists in Madison Co., KY (in the section that later became Garrard Co., KY). It should be noted that John B. Dysart also lived in Garrard Co., KY for short period of time. Additionally, one Sarah Alexander is named as daughter in the Mecklenburg Co., NC will of John Balch whose estate papers mention a move to Kentucky and then back to Mecklenburg Co., NC. It looks like one of John Balch's sons may have stayed in Kentucky, which may explain why Sarah Alexander stayed as well. Take care Ben.
