History of the Bellevue Presbyterian Church Cemetery at Caledonia, Missouri
P 9 
“Widow” Jane Alexander was laid to rest with other Alexanders in the very 
early days of the history of the colony in Bellevue Valley. It is not known 
positively who her husband was but the supposition is that she was the wife 
of one John Alexander who witnessed the will of Andrew McCormick, in then 
Lincoln, now Catawba County, North Carolina, in 1795.

"Within its pages you will find something of the heroic efforts of the 
Scotch-Irish Presbyterians who had migrated from Ireland to Pennsylvania and 
later farther south and west to build homes and found churches in which to 
worship. Many of the older people died and now lie buried in the church yards 
of the churches they helped to establish. And their children pushed farther 
westward to finally come together in the beautiful Bellevue Valley and its 
Presbyterian Cemetery where many of them sleep today."
