Lennox, Alexander
- Lanarkshire (LKS, County, Scotland)
Looking for family of Alexander Lennox, b. April 18, 1821, m. Marion Scott in June, 1843. She was b. 5/9/1825. It's possible his parents were John Lennox & Grace Hamilton, but I'm not sure. Siblings might be John, Janet, Grace,Marion, Robert (2 of them), James, Hugh, William. If this is the right family, the 1841 census has them in Lanarkshire, Scotland; Village of Chapelton. Also with them in this census is John Ballantine, age 12. Any info at all would be most welcome.
