Thank you HI, If you are serious about 'all I can get', I have Maxwells from Ireland in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, OH: JOHN MAXWELL married CATHERINE Mc DONALD in 1860. I will post further information if anyone is interested. I have not been able to get John back to Ireland or have him related to siblings. Joan in Scottsdale, AZ

Would anyone have any info on James Maxwell b. 1820 Caldwell Co., Ky; d. Jackson Co., Al.; m. Rebecca b. ca. 1820 Tn. or Ga? Their children were: Conzada Robert Walter William George Gilbert Nancy Ann Sarah Jane They later migrated to Pope Co., Il. where he purchased 80 acres on 7 Feb 1852. Would love to know parents/sibs of James and Rebecca Jones Maxwell. Jan

Hi Earl, Would, or do you have any info in your 14,000 name data-base about a Joseph F./or T. Maxwell b. ? . Joseph F. Maxwell born the son of Hamilton Maxwell. Joseph F. Maxwell married my Great Grandmother Rebecca S. Grant b.about 1856 in bullitt Co. Ky. Before Rebecca S. Grant married my Great Grandfather Lewis B. Grant b.1-8-1858 in Bullitt Co. Ky. Joseph F. Maxwell & Rebecca S. "Grant" Maxwell had two children that I know of. They were; William Albert Maxwell b.12-15-1874, and Ollie Maxwell b. about 1877 or 1878 in Ky. Earl, I am not a Maxwell descendant, rather I am a Grant descendant. But I am very interested in the children, and descendants of Joseph F. Maxwell and Rebecca S. Grant.

My research for nearly 40 years has been on the PA Maxwell clans 1750-1850. I think your Susan comes from the Major William Maxwell clan of the Mercersburg area. Welsh Creek runs near Mercersburg and Greencastle, in the townships of Montgomery and Antrim. Major William went into Peters Twp (Montgomery came out of Peters) about 1737. He was a Major in the colonial army and one of the first Justices of Cumberland County in 1750. Here's part of the family: 1. William Maxwell, (c1716-Oct 1777) b: Ireland, died in Franklin Co. * Susannah ___________ (c1716-Dec 1781) Ireland & Franklin 2. Patrick Maxwell (c1735-Sep 1786) * Hannah Whitehall, m: 19 Oct 1769, died 1805 3. Susannah Maxwell and six siblings So if your dates are correct (birth 4 Feb 1787) then Susan was born about five months after her father's death. I have no reason to doubt your dates! You have a marriage date of 1823, which would mean Susan was 36 years old........very old for that era! However, I have Susannah getting married to James McCLELLAND on 24 Dec 1802 at Upper West Conococheague Presby. Church by Rev. John King. She would have been several months short of her 16th birthday (maybe a little young, but certainly possible). My guess is that James died and John Elliott was her second marriage. Most of my data on this clan comes from the Kittochtinny Historical Society records in Chambersburg. Please let me know if you find anything to confirm my theory. Wilmer Maxwell, Carlisle, PA

Genie, Dale; You two should get to know each other. You both gave me almost the same data. I am descended from Susannah Maxwell and John Elliott and their son Maxwell Elliott who married Nancy Angle in Greencastle Franklin co PA. I want to know what you know about the Maxwell/Elliott/Angle families in Franklin co PA I have the descendants and will exchange data. Genie this is the Dale I asked you about.

My research for nearly 40 years has been on the PA Maxwell clans 1750-1850. I think your Susan comes from the Major William Maxwell clan of the Mercersburg area. Welsh Creek runs near Mercersburg and Greencastle, in the townships of Montgomery and Antrim. Major William went into Peters Twp (Montgomery came out of Peters) about 1737. He was a Major in the colonial army and one of the first Justices of Cumberland County in 1750. Here's part fo the family: 1. William Maxwell, (c1716-Oct 1777) b: Ireland, died in Franklin Co. * Susannah ___________ (c1716-Dec 1781) Ireland & Franklin 2. Patrick Maxwell (c1735-Sep 1786) * Hannah Whitehall, m: 19 Oct 1769, died 1805 3. Susannah Maxwell and six siblings So if your dates are correct (birth 4 Feb 1787) then Susan was born about five months after her father's death. I have no reason to doubt your dates! You have a marriage date of 1823, which would mean Susan was 36 years old........very old for that era! However, I have Susannah getting married to James McCLELLAND on 24 Dec 1802 at Upper West Conococheague Presby. Church by Rev. John King. She would have been several months short of her 16th birthday (maybe a little young, but certainly possible). My guess is that James died and John Elliott was her second marriage. Most of my data on this clan comes from the Kittochtinny Historical Society records in Chambersburg. Please let me know if you find anything to confirm my theory. Wilmer Maxwell, Carlisle, PA

Dale; That certainly sounds like my Susannah, Right time, date and place. Can you send me her siblings? Are you interested in her descendants? If so send me your address and I will print then and send snail mail, unless you can tell me how to export them I have PAF ver 5. I have had people coach me thru it on the phone, I have DSL so the phone is no problem.

Genie, BG, Roland, Dean; This is from a Maxwell searcher who had a Susannah Maxwell who matches our Susannah who married John Elliott, father of Maxwell Elliott. He has a possible explanation. Do any of you have data on this marriage or family?; Brenda can you help? Genie, the marriage of Susan and John is a guess, an educated approxamation. If you have different, I would like to know. Roland Elliott has the Elliotts way back maybe you two can get together.

Max, Thanks for you help, it was not my Joseph. But, I did find my Joseph & Rebecca Grant. That was all it listed, nothing else. Again thank you for your help. If you run across any of my Joseph Maxwell & Rebecca Grant's lines, Please let me know.

Have very, very little on Kentucky. But here is what you might do to get some help: Go to MORMON WEBPAGE http://www.familysearch.org/ Type in Joseph Maxwell and father: Hamilton Maxwell, also scroll until you get "United States." When I did his it brought up Joseph T. Maxwell, son of Hamilton and Emeline Matthews. Could this be your line? Max
