Biography
Alexander was born in 1789 in Coldstream[1] and baptised on 11 Oct 1789. He is the son of James Rutherford.
He moved to Edinburgh and married Margaret Patterson on 20 Dec 1825 in Edinburgh[2][3]
He moved to Edinburgh with his father and siblings and in 1841 was living at 40 North Richmond Street, St Cuthberts, Edinburgh with his brother, Thomas, and 2 of Thomas' children, James and Janet. Alex's occupation was listed as "Agent"[4]
No record of him can be found in 1851 Scottish Census and so he may have died prior to this date.
