Hi,
Alexander had a first marriage before Mary Eustace, and this information was compiled by another Mills family researcher on rootschat:: summary -
Alexander Mills’ previous marriage, From the Jerripedia website, all records for St Helier, Jersey:
""Alexander Mills 4 Garrison Battalion married Grace Coad on 15 November 1810.
Baptism: George John Mills baptised 30 August 1811 Parents Alexander and Grace Mills.
Grace Cord Mills buried on 24 November 1811 . ""
the second marriage
Corporal Alexander Mills 4th G Battalion and Mary Eustace the daughter of John Eustace were married together 17 August 1814
. Alexander and Mary Eustace - their children:
. Jean (John) 1815 June 2
. Twins: Sarah 1817 April 8
. Elizabeth 1817 April 8
. Alexander 1819 June 22
. Mary Ann 1821 Nov 9
. Maria 1824 Feb 2
. James 1826 june 16 – died 1830 Feb 7 aged 3 ½
. William 1828 June 28 – died 1830 Feb 22 age 2
. Joseph 1830 Decem 23 – died 1837 Oct 22 aged 6 ½
. Thomas 1833 Feb 28 (?killed on board his boat in Guernsey harbour?)
Death record for Alexander Mills:
Alexander’s death is not on the civil register however his burial record is as follows:
Mills Alexander died 2 was buried 7 January 1848 aged 63 years
Alexander and Mary (Eustace) Mills are buried in Candie Cemetery which is just opposite the Priaulx Library.
1798
Alexander Mills Plot bought by Josue P I Ahier Ecr January 3 1848. Died 2, buried 7 January 1848 aged 63 years born Ireland Plot No: C 32 Y £1 8sh
4893
Mary Eustas wife of Mr. Alexander Mills died January 17, buried 20 1868 aged 80 years & 11 months Plot No: C 32 Y 8sh
Note: Mary’s death certificate states her father is named Thomas however the marriage certificate gives the name as John, - it may be that the person who registered the death made an error. A John Eustace is godparent to John born 1815
Hope this helps decipher some of your records, and is your Mills connection through Jean(John) or George Coad? I'm still trying to find more in the irish records of Alex Mills of Fermanagh, there's pieces in Kew about him but not of his family.
