From the Lampasas Leader, Oct 17, 1913
Friends were surprised Tuesday morning to learn that Steve Alexander had passed away at his home some twelve miles south of Lampasas. Although he had been sick for some time, his death was not expected. For some months he had been afflicted with an abscess, which would not yield to treatment, and this was probably the cause of his death.
He was about 69 years of age and had spent most of his life in this section of Texas, having come to Texas from Arkansas when but a child. he was a faithful and consistent member of the Christian church, and was honored and respected by his neighbors among whom he lived a blameless life.
There were originally nine children of this family, seven brothers and two sisters; but three of the brothers, Robert James and Marion, have already passed over the river. Steve was the youngest of the entire family and there are yet five left, three brothers and two sisters.
He leaves a widow, six daughters, Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Marre, Mrs. Bennett, Mrs. Wooten, Mrs. White, Miss Eunice Alexander, at home; and three sons, Sam, Rube, and Frank, the latter being at the family home, the others living in the neighborhood.
