Acccording to the 1810 census, there eldest son, Isaac, was born about 1766, so they probably married just prior. They do not appear in the records until the 1769 tax records, where Alexander is listed as an inmate, indicating that he is already married. They married either in Charles Town, Chester County, Pennsylvania or in Ireland before they immigrated (if indeed that is where they are from)
