ALEXANDER posted by Kyle J. Wear on Friday, May 9, 1997

I am searching for descendents of Gabriel ALEXANDER who died in Augusta Co., VA in 1779. He had a brother named James ALEXANDER (d. 1778 in Augusta Co., VA) and possibly another brother Andrew ALEXANDER (d. 1778 or 1779 Augusta Co., VA). I believe that I am descended from Gabriel's son James ALEXANDER (d. 1809 "Long Meadow" Augusta Co., VA). When Gabriel's son James dies in 1809, he leaves a will mentioning the following children: John, William, Gabriel, Andrew*, James, Mary, Dorcus, Martha, Margaret, and Elisabeth. I believe that I may be descended from Andrew (son of James who dies in 1809). If anyone has any information on this family, it would be greatly appreciated.
