20560	He was a Presbyterian minister, who went with his family to Bertie Co. GA in 1757 as missionaries. Several ideas for his parents, Moses Alexander and Mary Wallace, but their birth dates in 1690 make them too young to be his parents. However, with his being a Presbyterian minister and fighting in the American Revolution, it is highly likely his roots are Ulster Irish (Scots Irish). Whether he is from the Cecil Co. Alexanders has not been proven. But there was a mass migration of Alexanders from this county in MD to Mecklenburg NC. Other researchers have John Alexander and Ann as his parents, but no information on place of birth. And another option is Anthony Alexander (10 OCT 1668 Dobbs Co. NC - 1741 Dobbs Co. NC) and Ann Jennett (1665 Dobbs Co. NC - 1750 Dobbs Co. NC) may be a possibility as they are the right age and location. Dobbs is an extinct county, the land now part of Greene and Lenoir counties. As of now, his parents have not been determined. It gets confusing with three generations of Samuel Alexanders living in the same areas to tell them apart. At one time all three were in the Duplin County, NC area in 1758, and again later in South Carolina in 1765, and then in Georgia.

REVOLUTIONARY WAR Source: Maryland Heardlic Familes Pg 63 "Samuel Alexander of Enderly Farms, near Charlotte, N. C., is probably the son or gr. son of Samuel, b--1699. At age 78,he was taken prisoner at Camden, S.C. (formerly part of N.C. at this point) during the American Revolution. When ordered by British crown to join his forces, he with others refused to do so. He was fastened to cart and forced to march 42 miles to be interned. Later he was sent to Georgia for release but enforced residence during the Revolution. His son, Capt. Samuel Alexander, was attacking the British at Fort Cornwallis and his father was placed in front of the British line. He was uninjured. Son and father show lands in Georgia, but the soldiery returned to their own states after Revolution. Source: Hero of Hornet's Nest" by L.C. Hays "Among the number was the father of Captains Samuel and James Alexander, in his 78th year of his age; he was arrested by a party commanded by Colonel Grierson, and by his order, was ignominiously chained to a cart and dragged like a criminal forty miles in two days; and when he attempted to rest his feeble frame, by leaning upon the cart, the driver was ordered to scourge him with his whip."
