1900 Census didn't say he was naturalised in 1845 - just that he arrived in US 1845 and was in 1900 naturalised. Didn't say when.
Found a 'Ali' Sutherland 40 b. Scotland at Denver, Arapahoe, Kansas Territory (?) on ancestry transcriptions for 1860 but he's not on the page that comes up (no other Sutherlands transcribed there).
Going to have to give up now - my mouse just about given out on me. Will have to get a new one tomorrow.

With four boys showing in the photo, and only 2 males identified so far and only 2 daus shown of 6 named in census, right??
Francis 1884 If a boy and not a girl and Could he have had the profession of undertaker @ 16?? George 1872
Still missing quite a bit of history actually...... if these are the 2 eldest daus then photo is maybe 1875-ish???
Anybody looked at it on the Photo Restoration board to determine the clothing styles ??
Wife looks "ancient" but maybe not even 40?? Yikes!
Annette blew out her mouse on this one!!!

Actually, going back to re-look at the photo again, Anna, the wife, doesn't really look "ancient". By the standards of the time and looking at other photos of women 30-40 in that era, she looks pretty good and about right, don't you think?? Harder with the men because of the beards. The oldest dau shown probably 12-13 
So your 1st statement dating the photo sometime in the 1870's seems really close.
Will be looking to see if the experts on the photo board can pin it down.
I'm always fascinated by their expertise over there!!

1870 states wife as Anna not Anna J - the christian names of Alexander and Anna are in brackets and the last figure is 'close bracket' not J. Also, in 1880 indexed as Suthernd.
Annette
Boy, I go to put my kids to bed and you guys just take off. Just to go back to the 1870 census, the one I am looking has wife indexed as Anna J, and it looks like a J on the original to me also. I don't see brackets around the names. Alexander is at the bottom of the page, and Anna and the rest of the family are at the top of the next page.

I found in article in the Colorado Springs Gazette from 28 Oct 1894. It talks about Alexander Sutherland's experience in the charge of the Light Brigade 40 years prior. It stated that he was now over 85 years of age and living in West Denver. It says he came to America after the war and settled in Denver in 1861 and lived there ever since. It says he's an Irishman and his father fought in the British Army and was one of the officers of the guard over Napoleon at St. Helena.
If I knew how to post it here, I would, but I don't.

1860 census shows him as born Scotland as Annette found (I just went through the images Annette and found him on image 37)
Occupation "Painter"?

I wouldn't necessarily agree with "knowing the parent." My MIL always said her dad was born in transit from Europe. It turns out he was born in NYC, have the birth cert to prove it. And in fact, he knew it all along, but I think it was just a fun story to tell. As I always say, everything with a grain of salt in this hobby.

My 2x grandparents are all over the place when reporting themselves as well as when their children recorded their parents birthplaces. Every 10 years they all re-confused themselves! One set of GGG and GGrandmothers I still haven't figured out
