Here's Alexander in the 1870 census: M593 Roll: 1378 Page: 25 WHITE ALEXANDER 25 M W IREL PA MONTGOMERY NORRISTOWN 1870 Alexander 25 engine machinist, b. Ire Emma 21 at home, b. Pa Margaret 1 , b. Pa They are living in the home of John W. Landis or Sandis, 74 who is a retired farmer Here's the only Thomas in the 1870 index that fits. There were 3 of them: ages 37 and 76 both born Pa and this Thomas who is born Ire. The post office listed on the census page is "Gen. Wayne. M593 Roll: 1379 Page: 489 WHITE THOMAS 20 M W IREL PA MONTGOMERY UPPER MERION TWP 1870 Thomas 20 laborer, b. Ire. Robinson Catharine 25 keep house, b. Ire, cannot read or write Robinson, Sarah 1, b. Pa There are 3 James listed but I don't think they fit although I don't know the ages of those for whom you are searching. The James in the index are: 67 and 37 both born Pa and 50 born Ire. The 67 yr. old lives in Norristown but Upper Merion is listed for the other two. No one fits in the 1860 index as there is no one with the first names you list born in Ireland. Hope this has been helpful.
