I'm not sure Alexander was Neil's brother. According to some census records in England (still waiting for Smudger's confirmation) his place of birth shows as Glasgow, Lanark.

Wow a lot to pick through here. Re Alexander, I too am now wondering if he was Neil's brother. the 1851 ,61 and 71 show a Alexander McIntyre living in Tynemouth/North Shields on one he is shown as born Glasgow? but he is a labourer not a policeman. When I originally researched the police watch committee record books I followed Neil not Alexander and I am now wondering if Alex left the police. I will have to go back to Tyne and Wear archives to check that. it looks like the Alex on these census returns married Mary Fell in 1848 and Mary died in 1850. If he did leave the police I could send for the marriage cert to get his fathers info. (I didn't see a ref to Lanark Just Glasgow)

After Mary Fell's death, Alexander married again in 1852 to Mary Ann Ray and had many children. His occupations are labourer and grocer. He died in 1914.

I'm thinking that the best candidate is the one who died in 1848... I'm trying to find some more information about him, but if you don't get anything from the police archives, maybe it's a good idea to buy his death certificate.

According to the newspaper notice on Neil's death, he joined the police force in 1840 "Mr McIntyre joined the force ... on July 17th, 1840", so his DOB would be 1814 and Alexander's 1812.

If this is right, Alexander McIntyre d. 1848 age 36 in Durham/Lanchester is probably him.

PatLac, Please review your mathematics.

Alexander's year of birth was around 1821.

Mathematics isn't the problem here...

Quite right - numerous problems. You seem confused between Alexander and Neil, and you are looking at only 1 census record in isolation.


However, I will leave you to it, before this thread gets even more ridiculous.
I was trying to help Smudger1962.

I agree with  Neale and  think it might be best to allow smuddger time to read all the information that has been given so far.
