Generation 1

  • 1. ALEXANDER1 BEALL
    • was born about Abt. 1625 in Largo, County of Fife, Scotland.
    • He died about Abt. 1656 in St. Andrews Parish, Fife, Scotland.
    • He married Margaret Ramsay on May 21, 1646 in St Andrew's, Fife, Scotland.
      • She was born about Abt. 1630 in St Andrew's, Fife, Scotland.
      • She died after Aft. Mar 28, 1655 in Scotland.

Notes for Alexander Beall:

Alexander Bell is believed to have been born during the early 1600's in Fife County, Scotland. Although the identity of Alexander's parents has yet to be determined beyond doubt, there are a number of researchers who believe that his father was named William. It is further believed that Alexander had a brother, also named William, and that it was this William who married Christian Traill in the parish church at St. Andrew's in Fife County on 5 December 1639. No additional information has been found concerning this William, however.

Alexander, who was a brabener (linen weaver) by trade, was later married on 21 May 1646 in the parish church at St. Andrew's in Fife County to a woman named Margaret Ramsay. With the exception of Robert, the following children were identified through the christening records of St. Andrew's Church as being Alexander and Margaret's. Because no birth or christening records have been found for Robert, his actual relationship to this family is still being debated. It is my belief, however, that Alexander and Margaret could have had additional children that were christened in another parish, and that they simply have not been located yet. In light of the fact that Alexander's son, Alexander, specifically referred to a brother named Robert in his will, I have included this Robert as also being a son of Alexander and Margaret Bell.
