Alexander Gray was born in Aberdeenshire, Scotland on January 9th, 1833 to parents Alexander Gray and Elizabeth Innes. He was baptized in the parish of Chapel of Garioch on January 31, 1833. (His gravestone has the date of birth as February 9, 1834 but this is incorrect.)

Alexander was married to Helen Cassie, December 31, 1857, in Kemnay, Aberdeen, Scotland. Shortly after the marriage the couple immigrated to Dayton, Cedar, Iowa where they lived next door to Helen's brother William.

Helen and Alexander had a son, John Gray, in 1858. Helen Cassie died a few years later and Alexander remarried. His second wife was Ann Livingston Shearer, daughter of Walter and Euphemia (Murray) Shearer. They had five children together: Walter, Euphemia, Margaret, William, and Ann.

Alexander was a farmer and a miller.
