Parent of Alexander is unknown.  

Notes collected from other family members are as follows:
     "Our ancestor Richard Daves, settled in Virginia.  He was number 7 on the list of those 'Belonginge unto the Friendship of London, now riding att anker in the River of Thames, bound for Vergenia, March 1636.' He was listed as Richard Daves*; Cooper.  (Barrelmaker).  Also listed on the same ship was a Suzan Daves, presumably his wife.
    Richard Daves settled in Henrico County, Virginia, which had become a Royal Colony in 1624.  The part in which Richard settled was separated in 1749, becoming Chesterfield County.  Some of his decendants continued to live in this area, some moved to Mecklenburg County (made from Lunenburg County) in 1764-65 situated on the North Carolina border.  Lastly, a William Daves sailed from Bristol, England to Virginia for New England.  (Ref. Bristol and America; Page 131)  He arrived 30 years after Richard, so kinship is doubtful.
     The decendants of Richard Daves gradually migrated to North Carolina, South Carolina (where a William Daves was granted 200 acres of land for Revolutionary War service) some settled in Mississippi, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Arkansas - gradually coast to coast of the United States."
