| Notes |
- He was a Scottish soldier and aide to Bonnie Prince Charlie. He was captured as a prisoner of war by Oliver Cromwell at the Battle of Dunbar on September 3, 1650. Cromwell trounced the Scottish and Jacobites and took many prisoners, but let most of them go. He only kept the more "dangerous" prisoners and transported them to a church in England. They trashed the church. Cromwell got permission to "sell" them into indenture and this is how Alexander Innes came to Lynn, Massachusetts. He appeared on the inventory of property of the Lynn, Massachusetts ironworks when it went bankrupt. He traveled between the ironworks in Lynn and Taunton, Massachusetts. After his marriage, he and his wife, Catherine with her unknown maiden name, moved to Block Island, Rhode Island.
