Cemetery Record: Mack Alexander was born in 1847. He died of dropsy and was buried May 7, 1906. |
Mack Alexander was born into slavery. Therefore, there is no record of him by first and last name before the 1870 census. Mack Alexander would have been 12-15 years of age in 1860. According to the 1860 slave census, a plantation owner in Russell County, William Alexander, owned 4 male slaves within this age range. However, slaves were property, not people, so they are listed only by age, race, and gender. Therefore, it cannot be verified whether any of these slaves were Mack Alexander.
Porter Wineglass is listed as Mack Alexander's uncle. Mack J Alexander is Mack Charles Alexander, Jr.
