Treasure Chest Thursday~Marriages of Alexander L. Brock

Alexander L. Brock was born  21 August 1855, a son of James Brock and Martha Jane Teal. He had 13 siblings; 5 brothers and 8 sisters.

Alexander L. Brock married 1st Amanda Knight on 30 December 1880 in Barbour County, Alabama. I have found no evidence of a death date for Amanda; but, on 17 May 1911, Alexander L. Brock married Sally White in Barbour County, Alabama.

Alexander’s first wife Amanda Knight was the daughter of  Harbert S. C. Knight and Mary Zitterow. Her father died 2 Dec 1879; her Mother passed away on 15 November 1880; Amanda and Alexander were married on 30 December1880. Both of her parents were deceased when she was first married.

As stated previously we don’t have a date of death for Amanda Knight Brock but we do know that Alexander was a widow in 1910; so Amanda passed away before 20 April 1910.
