Here is some information about Alexander McCune from Ancestry World Tree. Unfortunately
no sources are referencded but the 1840 census for Alexander McCune gives his year of
birth between 1780 and 1790. Also, the 1850 Census of my previous posting shows Thomas
living with Barbara McCune. Her maiden name is likely Palmer but you would need
documentation to verify this.
