Alexander's name appears on the 1806 tax list for Kanawha County. By 1815 he had acquired 150 acres on Price's Mill Creek (later White's Creek) in Cabell County. The Hazlett's are mentioned in the research of Frederick Lambert who gathered information about Cabell and Wayne County (West) Virginia families. Lambert's notebooks are found in Special Collections at Marshall University Library and contain the comment that Hazlett was Irish. The name was originally spelled O'Hazlett. They lived on White's Creek, "far up". ^[3]
