Biography
Alexander was born about 1872 (according to headstone).
Marriage record states his birthyear to be 1877.
Mentioned in daughter's obituary (Dora Sinclair).
Alexander was living with his father Moses in St. John's in 1935, working as a carpenter. This probably why he wasn't on the 1935 Census of Harcourt with his wife and children.
