Hello Rootgatherer,
As you can see I am still searching for Alexander and his brother Henry , I keep telling myself they must be out there somewhere, I live in hope.
Hope you keeping well and finding lots of ancestors.

Hello Jean

I found the birth for Alexander. I assume you have this as you gave details regarding this in your post.

I Looked at all of the marriage and deaths for an Alexander Moore from 1880 till 1990 and did not find a record of either (with the parents on the birth extract) for the whole of Scotland.

I can only assume that Alexander moved away at an early age and married and died elsewhere.
