• Birth: Baptismal records show that Alexander Kirkwood was born before 6 January 1824 at Bo'Ness, Linlithgow, Scotland. This conflicts with data on his tombstone which show he was 'age 44' at birth and a 'Native of Stirlingshire'.^1,3
• Christening*: He was christened on 6 January 1824 at Bo'Ness, Linlithgow, Scotland.⁴
• He was the son of Thomas Kirkwood and Elizabeth Gilchrist.²
• Christening: Alexander Kirkwood was christened on 8 February 1824 at Slamannan, Stirling, Scotland; Most likely IGI entry: Alexander, chr 08 FEB 1824 Slamannan, Stirling, Scotland. Son of Thomas Kirkwood, Elizabeth Gilchrist.

• Marriage*: He married Margaret Dick, daughter of John Dick and Marion Alexander, on 12 June 1857 at Polmont, Stirling, Scotland; Since her father is shown as deceased on the marriage registration, the John Dick who witnessed this marriage is presumed to be Margaret's brother.^9,10
• Immigration*: Alexander Kirkwood and Margaret Dick immigrated after 12 June 1857 to Big Oak Flat, Tuolumne Co., California, United States of America; Margaret Dick, by then Margaret Priest, reported in the 1900 census that she came to the US in 1857. If she is the Margaret Dick cited in the marriage record above, then she came to the US almost immediately after her marriage. Family files submitted to the Groveland Museum by Wally Anker say that the Kirkwoods arrived in Tuolumne Co. in 1853 (sic). This is not supported by other documentation. Dickinson says, "They came via the Isthmus of Panama, arrived at Big Oak in 1858, and built a miners' supply store on the edge of a ridge overlooking Moccasin Creek."^11,12

• Probate: His estate was probated after 19 November 1870 at Sonora, Tuolumne Co., California, United States of America.¹⁹

• Marriage*: He married Margaret Dick, daughter of John Dick and Marion Alexander, on 12 June 1857 at Polmont, Stirling, Scotland; Since her father is shown as deceased on the marriage registration, the John Dick who witnessed this marriage is presumed to be Margaret's brother.^9,10

• Christening*: In 1915, Tuolumne County opened a new road, an alternate route from Jacksonville to Big Oak Flat, paralleling Moccasin Creek and traversing the east side of the canyon of Grizzly Gulch. The old, tortorous stage route crossed Moccasin Creek near the bottom of Moccasin Hill and climbed 2000' up the west side of the canyon in a mere 2 miles. Near the top 0f Moccasin Hill stood the Priest Hotel where most travelers stopped for refreshment and often to spend the night. By 1915 the hotel was operated by Jessie Corcoran, niece of the original proprietess whom everyone had known as Margaret Priest. So well known was the establishment that the hill became popularly known as Priest Grade. No records exist documenting the birth date of Margaret, the youngest daughter of John Dick and Marion Alexander. The parish register at Muiravonside, Stirlingshire, Scotland records that Margaret was baptised on 3 July 1835.

The family story, told by Wally Anker, says that John Corcoran died at what was then the Raboul Store in Groveland. After Mass in Big Oak Flat he had gone by wagon into Groveland "for a bite to eat". On leaving the establishment, he was kicked in the head by one of his team, leaving him obviously very seriously injured. Word was sent to Sonora to bring back a doctor, and John was taken into the store -- which, among other things, sold coffins. John died before the doctor arrived. Because he had gone to Mass, the descendants believed he died on a Sunday. In fact, he died on a Wednesday.^1,8
