Alexander MacLeod, a crofter and fisherman, was born 10 May 1830 in Stornoway, Ross, Scotland to William MacLeod and Christian MacLeod. He died in Tong, Stornoway, of cancer on 12 January 1900 at the age of 69.

Per ScottishRoots:

No official record was made of the birth or baptism of Alexander MacLeod - the grandfather of Mary Anne MacLeod Trump) but, according to the ages shown for him in various sources, i.e. census returns, his marrage [sic] and death certificates, he would have been born in Stornoway around 1830. This was before the advent in Scotland of compulsory registration of these events in 1855. His death record reveals that both he and his father had been crofters and that each of his parents was also named MacLeod - William and Catherine.
