Trying to find Alexander

Hi Trying to find information on three Alexander brothers that my living family have no memory of ever hearing about. John Alexander born 1850 in Mousewald William Alexander born 1852 in Mousewald Alexander Alexander born 1854 in Mousewald Their parents were John Alexander (my great great grandfather born c1828) and Josephina Smith (1830). She died young and he remarried Mary Shennan and had another 7 children including my great grandfather. My grandmother never mentioned these three uncles. The census of 1861 shows them living with him and Mary Shennan. Just curious really; if anyone has any information I would be grateful. Thanks, Ailie
