(Son) ResidenceGrowing up with his parents and siblings, Alexander lived primarily at Mulhussey Castle, County Meath, Ireland.1
(Heir) Will15 April 1794Alexander's father, Ralph Hinds of Kimmins Mill, County Meath, left a will dated 15 April 1794 and proved on 10 May 1794. His estate was quite large. He named eighteen beneficiaries, including Walter Hinds, Ralph Hinds, Walter Hinds, Anne Hinds, Richard Stephens, Esther (Cannon) Hinds, Matthew Hinds, Thomas Hinds, Alexander Hinds, Mary (Hinds) Walsh, Michael Walsh, Clarissa (Hinds) Stephens, Martha (Hinds) Matthews, Eleanor (Hinds) Smith, Hester (Hinds) Dunn, Hester Stephens, Clarissa Stephens and Mary Anne Stephens. It appears from reading the will that he put much of his estate into a trust or series of trusts, with Thomas Berry and Alexander Berry as trustees, for the purpose of perpetuating the Hinds legacy for eternity. The order of succession was designed to be (1) Walter Hinds, eldest son; (2) Ralph Hinds, fourth son; (3) Walter Hinds, nephew and son-in-law, husband of daughter Anne Hinds; and (4) Richard Stephens, his grandson.

To his fifth son, Alexander Hinds, Ralph bequeathed the sum of forty pounds per year, and the responsibility for payment to his fourth son, Ralph. The will instructed Ralph to pay Alexander, during his natural life, at the rate of two even half-yearly payments on the first day of May and first day of November in every year. Alexander was given the liberty, in case of non-payment, to seize the town and lands of Mulhussey, Kimmins Mill and Mullagh in the County of Meath, or any part thereof, for payment.2
