I think you need to provide some more information! How does a Scottish birth in 1829 and an Irish Hannah end up in Greater Manchester? There's quite a vacuum in the middle there.

I think you may have the wrong Alexander somewhere. This is the one born in Oyne in 1861.
The above Alex married to Hannah was a teacher of music in salford in 1861. I thought it was rather a jump from a farmer's lad to a music teacher!

Start at the beginning and tell us who your definite ancestor is and we can help you work backwards.

There are a few trees on ancestry who seem to have gone wrong.
