I am researching their descendants and have ran into a stumbling block. I have them with 6 children as follows: Andrew,John, Margaret, Samuel,James, and Mary E. These 6 children are listed in the will of James Eakin forn 1712. I would like someone to help me figure out where an Alexander forn 1760 comes into the line I have that he was married to a Lucy J and a Margaret(b1762) and that they had a son named James born 1804. James married a Mary Grant in December 1825. The Alexander is shown to be the son of James born 1712. I do not think he is the son of James because there is no mention of him in the will. can anyone clear this up.
