Ireland / Re: Alexander MOORHEAD a "National Teacher" - b. Longford 1860ish

thanks Hallmark!

I did check a secondary conversation but I noticed that nothing else has been posted by Luv since Oct 2016. I am not sure if she will see what I have added.

The secondary conversation does contain other information. Robert Moorhead, brother of Alexander (1859) did experience a similar unfortunate family situation. Both brothers appear to have lost their wives and had children. What seems very positive is that they did all come together to help. In the 1901 census, it appears that one of Robert's sons is with his mother in Co. Longford and the other is with his uncle in Co. Cork.

I am puzzled by something though. Alexander's children John W , Anne and William all went to Canada in the 1920's. Would you know how I could find out what happened to James Alexander?

I would appreciate any help.

I have been researching Alexander Moorhead for 3 years. I found your information yesterday and to my surprise almost all of my information was correct. Your attached documents clarified many dates. I do know something about Anne Moorhead's family that came to Canada. Her brother John W Moorhead came before her. I think you have a lot of very pertinent information regarding Alexander's line and it may not be possible to go before 1800. I will write again soon but I think the collaboration you have experienced is just wonderful. Thank you to all who have participated!
