bullet  General Notes:

Many family trees on Ancestry.com record him as marrying Margaret Nichol and having 5 children, the descendants of some of whom ended up in the USA. On these trees he is recorded as having died in McKeesport, Pennsylvania on 20 Sep 1882.

This is completely wrong. I suspect the 20 Sep 1882 is a confusion with his brother Adam who died on 20 Dec 1882 in McKeesport. The Alexander Forsyth who married Margaret Nichol died in Aberdeen in 1867, his wife Margaret died there in 1874. His parents were William Forsyth and Janet Joss according to his death record. They actually had at least 6 children.
