About Alexander Marsh

Wikitree's profile for Alexander Marsh (abt. 1628 - 1698) does not concur with him being born in Colonial America. It offers a rationale for his birth in England. As of 13 Sep 2023, this Wikitree profile is a cobbled mélange in need of an editor. Nevertheless, its content is worth consideration.
