Notes

!SOURCE: Rev. Dr. Donald MacKinnon and Alick Morrison, THE MACLEODS: THE GENEALOGY OF A CLAN, Section III, "MacLeod Cadet Families", Edinburgh, The Clan MacLeod Society), 1970, pp. 217, 225. Alexander, born on 12th June 1774, sailed from Liverpool to America in 1792. He came under the influence of the Reverend MacKiney, a native of Ireland, who was a minister at Princeton. Alexander now decided to study for the Ministry of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of America. He studied at Union College where he graduated in 1798. For a short time he was pastor at Wallkill, New York, but his real work was done as pastor of the First Reformed Presbyterian Church in New York. "Dr. MacLeod's Kirk", was a landmark in New York and the fame of his ministry was carried around the country by hosts of admireres. "His powers as a pulpit orator were of a high order and his discourses were prepared with rare analytical skill; every subject he touched was thoroughly discussed and while strictly orthodox, he exemplified by his pulpit ministrations that a man can be as orthodox as original". As one of the Chaplains for many years of the St. Andrew's Society, Dr. MacLeod kept in active touch with his countrymen of all classes and was beloved by them all. He married on 15th September 1805 Mary Anne Agnew, with issue.
