Per the 1891 census Alex Howard was born in Ouglitch, Russia. Per the 1871 his father Henry was a retired paper maker so may have been involved with the Ouglitch writing paper mill.  A Google search reveals references to Howards involved in paper milling in Russia since the 18th century.

There are some St Petersburg  baptism records at the Guildhall library. Not sure about Ouglitch.

Many thanks for your replies.  Pity he's not in the overseas index.  However the Ouglitch link might be worth investigating.
