I am searching for my Alexander family . I have very little to go on, so I will type what I know. J.S. Alexander was born in 1820, according to the 1900 Red River county census. I do not know who his wife was or even his first name. His son is A.W. (William) Alexander, born in about 1876 at Arkansas. He married Sallie Holdaway in 1900 at Clarksville TX. They had a daughter, Katie, born in October 1900. >From the 1900 U.S. census, J.S. Alexander was living in the household of his son J.W. Alexander and his wife Martha. A relative years ago by the name of Eva Alexander Gates gave me the following information: Some of the children of J.S. Alexander are: J.W. Alexander born abt. 1860 at Arkansas A.W.(William) born abt. 1876 at ARk. Berry or Berryman Alexander John Alexander Lee Alexander Calvin Alexander Any assistance in locating this family's ancestors is appreciated. My email is cjbell@inebraska.com

Six Months from Tennessee by Skipper Steely lists Blake Alexander and Betsy Alexander... Index pg 171. They may/may not be related to the people you named..
