Notes:

It appears that Temperance died pretty early. Her marriage to James does not appear in the saved records of Rutherford County. Bedford County, the next guess, has no marriage records before about 1850. It appears that James Alexander remarried to an Elizabeth Cooper after Temperance died. One of their children was named Micajah Cooper Alexander. She was not a daughter of Micajah, but perhaps a sister.

In any case, I have not been able to track her down well to figure out a more likely birth date nor a real marriage record.

Temperance married James A. Alexander in 1820 in Murfreesboro, Rutherford, Tennessee, United States. James was born in 1794 in North Carolina, United States; died on 28 Nov 1878 in Shelbyville, Bedford, Tennessee, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

We need to prove that in fact Henry Vincent, son of Alexander Vincent, was the Henry who married Rachel Caits and fathered Adolphus. Based on the dates, it is possible that Henry, son of Henry, was the husband of Rachel Caits.

Henry Vinson witnessed the inventory for Joshua Cates, dec'd on 22 Dec 1838 in Rutherford Co., Tenn. Among the articles included in the inventory were 4 negroes and one note for $81.50 on Henry Vinson due 25 Dec 1838. Total for the inventory was $28676.25. The inventory was signed by John Cates and Henry Vinson.

The fact that Henry sold this land adjoining his own to this family for 1 cent means there was some sort of relationship, I would think.

Possessions:
William Sherwood of Edgecomb County to John Champion of Granville County, for ten pounds Virginia Currency, sells 422 acres on Taylor's Creek. Sherwood purchased in March 1760 from Thomas Childs. Witnessed by Charles Champion.

Will:
This will is transcribed with a date of 15 Nov 1778. November is scratched out and December is added in a different hand. But, it refers to John's daughter Elizabeth as Elizabeth Preddy. She did not marry Robert Preddy until 1783. Other wills listed in this book are probated in November term of court 1787 and appear to be written just before that.

All of this means that his death was most likely 1787 rather than 1778.
