(Sabin 10905). Col. Thomas L. Alexander (1807-1881), a veteran of both the Black Hawk and Mexican wars, graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 1830 and entered the United States Army as a second lieutenant in the 6th Infantry. His long career included frontier service, combat against the Sac Indians in the Black Hawk War (Battle of Bad Ax), service in the Florida Indian campaigns, and distinguished action in the Mexican War at Vera Cruz, Cerro Gordo, Contreras, and Churubusco, for which he received a brevet promotion to major for gallantry. Rising to lieutenant colonel, Alexander later served in senior administrative roles as Deputy Governor of the Military Asylum at Harrodsburg, Kentucky, and for six years as lieutenant governor of the Soldiers' Home near Washington, D.C. He retired from active service in 1863. He was a founding member of the Aztec Club of 1847, along with future presidents Franklin Pierce and Ulysses S. Grant. His wife was a longtime friend of Mary Todd Lincoln, often sharing correspondence and visiting the Lincoln's at the White House in 1864.
