VA circa 1770s. Saw a citation in a book on the history of Pike County Missouri. This book stated that Alexander came from KY to Lincoln County Missouri with his son WIlliam and brother, stayed there a couple of years and then Alexander and his son moved on to Pike County. This Alexander had a son William also born in Loudoun County VA in 1808. Assume Alexander was brother to my William who married Isabelle Huston in Nelson County. KY in 1810 and moved to Lincoln County Missouri about 1831.
