Biography of William M. Alexander, Crawford County, Arkansas
Published in The History of Crawford County, Arkansas,
Goodspeed Publishing Company, 1889
William M. Alexander, farmer and stock raiser, was born in Williamson County, Tenn., in 1828, his parents being Alfred and Rebecca (Kerby) Alexander, natives of the same county, where they lived until 1837. They then started for Oregon, but stopping in Stoddard County, Mo., died there in 1881 and 1883, aged seventy-six and seventy-one, respectively.
In religion they were Methodists.
The grandfather, Thomas Alexander, was born in Buncombe County, N. C., was an early settler of Tennessee, a soldier in the Revolution, and died in Williamson County, aged one hundred and five, on the farm on which our subject's father was born. His father came to America from Ireland and died in Tennessee, aged one hundred and ten, on the farm upon which our subject's father was born.
William M. is the eldest of a family himself and six sisters, and was reared in Stoddard Couonty, Mo., during the pioneer days, receiving but a very limited schooling. In 1856 he married Sarah M., daughter of John Edwards and a native of Kentucky. Mr. Edwards was born in England. In 1872 Mr. Alexander moved from Stoddard County to his present farm in Vine Prairie Township. He now owns eighty acres of well-improved land, all of which he has cleared. Having learned the cooper's and blacksmith's trades, he works at them in connection with his farming. He is always willing to aid any enterprise for the advancement of the county, and is known as one of its upright and well-to-do citizens. He cast his first presidential vote for Pierce, and with the exception of 1864, when he voted for Lincoln, has supported every Democratic candidate since. He is a member of the Producer's Trade Union and Knights of the Horse. Himself and wife belong to the Methodist Church.
