Capt. C.C.Alexander R.E.

[Clivealex]

I believe that Capt. Charles Carson Alexander, Royal Engineer, was sent to St Helena island in 1840 to supervise the exhumation of the body of Napoleon Bonaparte and load it onto a ship for transport to France. As far as I  can tell he was not related to the Alexanders already on St Helena. I am a descendant of that family. I am interested in tracing his line back to see if he ties up with our line some time in the past. We have traced our line back to Wyllyam Alexander, born in 1515 in Heckfield, Hampshire. The first Alexander on St Helena was Richard, born in 1652 in Yately, Hampshire. Any help will be appreciated
