ALEXANDER
Interested in communicating with descendants of Randall
Alexander. From Pat Treadway pgtreadway@gmail.com
ANDERSON
Looking for info on a (Agnes) Nancy Anderson who was married
to Alexander Miller 1725 – 1791. They left Londonderry NH around 1760 and
helped establish Truro, Nova Scotia.
Alexander Miller was brother of James Miller who married Mary Alexander,
daughter of Randall Alexander. James and Mary Miller left Londonderry and helped
establish Belfast, Maine. It appears the
Nancy Anderson, daughter of James Anderson, was unmarried. The Millers came from Maine to
Londonderry. From mikemck2002@yahoo.com
Both Morrison’s and Parker’s books state 1st 16
settler James Anderson’s son Robert m. Agnes Craige. Morrison has them with 7
ch. Parker has then with 9 ch. The 8th is “Mary”. A land deed
suggests that Robert was married to a “Mary” after “Agnes”. Looking for
verification for or against this. From Ken
