Elizabeth Jane McAlexander
Can anyone tell me who the father of Elizabeth Jane McAlexander is?There have been posts on the net that she belonged to William McAlexander.He is the son of Alexander McAlexander who migrated from Virginia to Madison Co., Alabama and then to Marshall Co., Mississippi in the 1830's.Three of Alexander McAlexander sons moved with him to Alabama and then Mississippi:Samuel, James and William.Of the 3 Samuel eventually moved north into Hardeman Co., Tennessee.Of the 1830 and 1840 census records, only James has a daughter that fits the age range of females in the household.I also find it very interesting that a few of Elizabeth's children were named after James' children (Martha, Julia, etc).There is also a story about the nine children of William McAlexander and no Elizabeth Jane is mentioned.
Elizabeth Jane McAlexander married Samuel B. Davis in 1847 in Marshall Co., Mississippi.
Any help would be immensely grateful.
