I don't know if this is a connection to your John Sutton McAlpin, but here's the information just in case:
Robert and Isabella McAlpin emigrated from Killin, Perthshire, Scotland, aboard the ship "New York" and arrived on September 27, 1836 at NYC, where they stayed. Their Killin-born children accompanying them were:
John born 1824
Jean born 1826
Margaret born 1828
Alpin born 1830
Betsy born 1833
Isabella born 1835
Robert (1837) and James (1840) were then born in New York City. The father Robert has died by the 1850 census:
1850 census NY / NYC / New York Ward 8, page 346, HH96
Isabella McAlpin 43 born Scotland
Alpin McAlpin 19 Brass Founder born Scotland
Robert McAlpin 13 born New York
James McAlpin 10 born New York
The father Robert was brother of my ancestor Betsy McAlpin Campbell 1805-1868 of Killin Perthsire and of Osgoode, Carleton Co, Ontario.
