"The Alexanders, also in the Campbell line, founded Alexandria, VA and helped to found Charlotte, NC. I read about it in a book called "Pioneers and Planters"--a fascinating book about the history of the South. Aunt Lois had already told me about the Charlotte part, but I didn't know about Alexandria. It stated that they were Presbyterian Merchants--meaning Scottish, as it was a Scottish sect, akin to what the Anglican church is to England, if I am not mistaken."
When I get around to the Alexanders, I will try to expand on this. Thanks, Renee!
