Thank you JJ. I think I might have figured out some of how to use the board. I apologize for not responding. Any help to find information on him is greatly appreciated!

The poster was looking for his ancestor...but this was not the correct Alexr McKillop/McCaleb/M'Caleb
 
 The young lad he's searching for signed up as a drummer for the revolutionary war against the British, as a young teen & served in "Canada" & the U.S. / imprisoned in St. John's N.B.

 There's a FamilySearch tree for him...Says b. Scotland - taken from cemetery records. Tree also has a different birth date than the publication - also taken from cemetery records.
