Alexander Laird **
- Born: 1710, Saint Ninians, , Stirling, Scotland
- Christened: 28 Mar 1710, Saint Ninians, , Stirling, Scotland
- Marriage (1): Agnes McLuckie **
General Notes:
There is only one birth record at ScotlandsPeople for an Alexander in the period 1700-1720 in Stirlingshire.
The only marriage record I can find for an Alexander Laird in Stirling over the period 1722-1740 is one recorded in Polmont. It is a list of Proclamation money paid into the church and no bride's name is recorded. As this is when the Proclamation money was paid the actual marriage probably occurred 3 weeks after the date shown.
A number of researchers show additional children born before the unnamed child, Abraham b.1735 or 1739 and Agnes b. 1736. The only evidence cited is Family trees submitted at IGI, I can find no records substantiating these births. Another child, James, falls into this category but a DNA connection with one of James' descendants suggests this is a valid parentage for him, especially as the only Lairds being born at this time in Stirling were to Alexander and Agnes.
Alexander married Agnes McLuckie **. (Agnes McLuckie ** was born circa 1710 in Scotland.)
