Hello, I am trying to discover the parents of Alexander Geddes born 1834 in Scotland and died 1896 in Philadelphia.  He was married to Sarah ?? and had a son Charles A. who was my Dad's grandfather. I believe that Alexander's Dad may have been named Charles since he named his son Charles A.  I have found a Charles Geddes married to Margaret Brown from Fife Scotland and that they had a son named Alexander.
