Biography
Mary married Moses Alexander Senior (abt.1693-abt.1761). Her surname may be Wallace, [1] but no 'reliable souce' has confirmed that information. She predeceased him, as she is not mentioned in his will.
Mary died Oct 25 1758
All that is known about Mary, the wife of Moses Alexander, is what is written on her headstone:
- Mary Alexander, wife of ye Moses Alexander, dyed 25th of October, 1758, aged 58 years.
Research Notes
Her name may have been Mary Elizabeth Wallace, but no reliable source has been found for that name.
Although there are no sources for the maiden name, this seems to be where she is buried.
Errors have also been found in DAR and SAR applications.

- U.S., Sons of the American Revolution Membership Applications, 1889-1970. Louisville, Kentucky: National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. Microfilm, 508 rolls
