Jan, I'd be willing to bet the Jesse and George Maxwell you listed are sons of David Maxwell and Nellie McCullough. George and Jesse Maxwell were early settlers of TN.

Hi Judy. I don't know about the Pattons; haven't really done much research on them. The earliest that I know about is Robert Patton who died 1843 Gallatin Co., Il. I think that he came from Tn. and the family was probably in Va. prior to that. Robert did have a son named Thomas and one named Robert Wiatt that I know of. So it is possible that Robert's father was named Thomas. As to the Maxwells, I only know that my James Maxwell was b. 1820 Caldwell Co., Ky.; went to Ala.; then to Pope Co., Il. in the 1840's. He married Rebecca Jones 1835-40; place unknown. Do you think we can connect?

Jesse & George were brothers. The area where their land grants were became Hawkins County in 1786. Jesse and George also had land grants in Davidson Co TN. I visited was passing through Nashville this summer and drove around the land once owned by Jesse. George remained in Hawkins county, but Jesse and family left in 1803. I do not believe the other Maxwells were related to Jesse & George. There was a 3rd brother involved in the early TN exploration. David was killed by Indians at Caney Fork, where ever that may be. Jesse claimed land in Davidson County for his brother's heirs. William & Moses sold this land to John Overton Sr. He built Traveler's Rest on the land. It's now a historical site. I got there too late in the day to take the tour. Jesse's granddaughter, Harriet Virginia Maxwell marred John Overton Jr. He built the Maxwell House Hotel in Nashville and named it after his wife's family. This is the same hotel that gave the coffee it's name. Gene Phillips At 10:04 PM 8/1/02 -0400, you wrote: >Here are some early Maxwells who received land grants from NC to Tn.

They could be, I just don't know. I can't seem to get past my James b. 1820 Caldwell Co., Ky. My guess is that his family was in Tn. prior to Ky. then Ala. and Pope Co., Il. , but I have nothing to connect with. I keep hoping that someone will help me be able to connect the dots.

Josette , I think you could be correct about what looks like an "f" being an "s". Martha's surname being " RUSSELL " makes more since than "Rufsell". Their writting back in those days is like my writting these days. If someone wants to post the information on the Russell newsletter be my guest. At this time my wife's Family Tree does not have a Maxwell or Russell surname. The bible has been in the family a very long time. I just made the post to try to help someone. John

Hi: My John Maxwell married to Mary unknown was born in NC in 1796 (date from gravestone). He is buried in the Maxwell cemetery in Henry Co TN near the Graves Co KY line only a few miles from the Hays cemetery in Cottege Grove. Also buried there are Mary Maxwell (1804-1876) and Marion Maxwell (1837 - 1861). He appears in Henry Co TN census in 1840 and 1850. 1850 lists him as a 54 year old farmer born in NC with assets of $1000. Wife Mary, age 44, also born NC. Children Marion, age 13, John age 10, Maston (written Martin) age 7, Paralee age 4 all born TN. Also listed (last) is Margaret Maxwell age 18 bn TN. No relationship is given, but it seems like visiting relatives are usually listed after the children, so I wonder if she could be a neice. John is also the father of my Mary Jane Maxwell who was married to James C. Hays by 1850. 1840 lists him as age 40 to 50 with one male under 5, one female 5-10 (assumed to be Mary Jane) and female 30 - 40 assumed to be wife Mary. Could this be my breakthrough on him? Does anyone know what happened to the John Maxwell listed below? This family has been a brick wall for awhile. It would be great to connect John to a family. Thanks!

Check the original document for the appearence of "Rufsell". I believe that at that time the first "s" in words with "ss" looked alot like a "f". This might make a difference.

Does your James Maxwell (b. ca 1820) have descendents also named James? I'd be curious of the names of his following two generations (and locations) to see if I can tie into my grandfather James Maxwell, born about 1870, ending up in McIntosh (Washington Co.) Al. in the Mobile area. On Mon, 5 Aug 2002 18:39:54 -0400 Thomas Sanders <jb.jj@juno.com> writes: > I would love to have your information.

There is a line of Maxwells that came out of Guilford County, North Carolina. The children of this John are listed as I received them but I have only documented my line Hugh. Since done thirty years ago, the listing may not be accurate/complete. Much more information is available now to be searched. I would suggest that James might descend from one of Hugh's brothers. Name: John MAXWELL, 5G Grandfather, M ----------------- Birth: ca 1718/1720 Dublin, Ireland came to America when 21 Death: aft 1762/1772 North Carolina Occupation: lived Reedy Fork near Greensboro, Guilford Co NC Father: James ? MAXWELL, M Mother: Margaret NOWELL, F Misc. Notes The family of Maxwell, which for centuries held the titles of Lord Maxwell, and Earl of Nicksdale, is of Saxon origin and can be traced as far back as the middle of the eleventh century when Undwin and his son Maccus, on the conquest of England by William of Normandy, took refuge in Scotland and became the founder of the family with the surname of Maxwell. Maccus, the son of Undwin, A.D. 1100-1150 obtained from King David the lands of Roxburghshire, afterwards erected into the Barony of Maxwell. He built the Maxwell Castle and the Church of Maxwell, which he designed St. Michael, now united to Kelso and probably he also buit the Church of Maxton. His grandson Sir John Maxwell was first of Carlaverock 1200-12451, John' s son Aymer Maxwell, fourth Lord Maxwell, second of Carlaverock and first of Mearns, 1241-1266; Aymer's son, Sir John Maxcwell, First of Pollock, 1270-1306 or 1266-1270; John's son Sir Robert Maxwell, Second of Pollock, 1306-1330; Sir John Maxwell, third of Pollock, 1330-1360; Sir John Maxwell, 4th of Pollock, 1360-1405 & etc. A possible lineage can be traced on but two links are missing to connect for sure with our John Maxwell immigrant. Our American ancestor, John Maxwell was born in Ireland between 1710 and 1720. He was twenty one when he came to America. He married Elizabertn Mc Clendon/McLi(a)nden and settled in the low part of North Carolina. At this time he was a Presbyterian and lived near Greensboro, North Carolina. He is listed in the records of North Buffalo Creek Presbyterian Church (later called Buffalo Presbyterain Church) It was named Buffalo because herds of buffalo once ranged in this area. The church record states "John Maxwell located on Reedy Fork in 1772" The church was two miles north of the center of Greensboro. The first settlers in this area were Scotch-Irish with a constant emigration to American from 1610-1688. History of Buffalo Presbyterian Church and Her People, page 44 and alsoo quotations from Deed Book 1 of Guilford County, page 186 and 526. Possibly John may have been in the Revolutionary War and may have died from his injuries. He and his wife are believed buried in the same grave. A John Maxwell is on the Tax lists of Johnson County.

Hi Don, This is timely. I just returned from vacation to see my relatives in Ohio. While there I stopped back by Bethel cemetary in Morrow (Marion?) county, OH and took a few more pictures. (My notes are at home.) One of the pictures I took was of the nice headstone set up in my Maxwell family plot for Mary Maxwell and A Ireland. Maxwell husbands & wives share stones in this plot. Mary's line is a branch of our Maxwell line and they settled in Cardington/Marion, OH along with our branch. If anyone would like a copy of the picture, let me know.

I am searching for information on James Maxwell. He lived in Paulding County Ga in 1850. He then moved to the Randolph County, Alabama area and Heard and Carroll County, GA. He had several children.William L., Mary Ann, Nancy Ann, Mahulda Jane (my gggrandmother) John M., Thomas F. Spencer J., Sarah F., Andrew, Henry Wesley, Stonewall Jackson, Martha, William Edward (known as Mannie) and Amada. He had 3 wives, but the only name we have is Sarah Henson. James Maxwell was born abt 1820 and died abt 1872. I would appreciate any information.
