Hi Lyn- To get help with a family surname: _http://genforum.genealogy.com/_ (http://genforum.genealogy.com/) After the slash you may type Maxwell, Jones, Smith, etc. Also, there is the international society CLAN MAXWELL or HOUSE OF MAXWELL. And one more, MAXWELL DNA family project. There are several family trees listed under misc. on the DNA webpage. Finally you might look at MORMON CHURCH, FAMILY HISTORY. All of these pages will come up if you go to GOOGLE and type the capitalized words. When you get into Pennsylvania Maxwell families, , I am 89 years of age (brag, brag!) and have been collecting data since 1965.....Max this In a message dated 6/11/2012 1:04:49 P.M.

After many hours of searching I finally found Sylvan Miller Maxwell and his father Erastus Miller Maxwell. They were not in Nashville, TN as I thought but were located in another District just outside the city limits in 1940. I was able to locate 1940 maps from the site mentioned below which put me on the right tract. I already had a current City Map for Nashville to use as a comparison. I needed to look in Davidson county "other places" not Nashville. If you have an account with Ancestry.com, search the name you are seeking in the City Directories for an address in the correct timeframe. Next, this is a very good website. http://stevemorse.org He has lots of information on the census and covers all the States. He will be able to link your street address to the correct images. I hope this helps someone. Barbara Maxwell Krall

John is a distant cousin with whom I've lost contact. Can anyone help? He is related to David Maxwell Rumph who married Mary Jane Stewart, AL, about 1865. Lyndall Maxwell [email protected]

You can go down to the State Archives in Nashville and look at the original there or you can read the transcribed copy I have. I was sent a Xerox copy of the manuscript but some of the pages were missing and the bottom of some pages were cut off. I'll send you a copy to you directly.

That would be David Maxwell, born 1731 in Lancaster Co PA. He married Nellie McCullough. They had 6 children, Jean, George, Rebecca, Jesse, James & David. As far as I have been able to determine the line daughtered out. At least Jesse's did. David had 2 son's that left TN for the "Northwest Territory" which at the time was Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan & Wisconsin. I found someone several years ago that thinks they were descended from one of them, but nothing conclusive.

Hi Gene, Out of curiosity who was Jesse Maxwell's brother? Was his name James Maxwell? Who were the heirs of Jesse's brother and who was his wife?

Gene..The plantation is a true treasure and I would really like to see it. On a different subject..Who is your earliest Maxwell ancestor? Has any Maxwell in your family participated in the Maxwell DNA project? Barb -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gene Phillips Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2012 5:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MAXWELL] 1940 Census list of Maxwell"s in TN Thanks, but I know exactly where it is. I've been to Traveler's Rest. Since it was Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend, I got a private tour of the place. It's been restored to how it was when John Overton lived there. It's a very interesting tour if you're ever in the area. My gggg-grandfather Maxwell's property was adjoining the Travelers rest property on the south. It extended south from Farrell Parkway to Hogan Rd and east to Trousdale Rd and west to the US 31 aka Franklin Pike. Of course all those roads weren't there in the early part of the 18th century. My ggg-gf Phillips lived on property that joined the Maxwell property on the west. If you look on some maps the intersection of Hogan Rd and US 31 is the Phillips community.

Gene: I looked on Map Quest and found Crieve Hall, TN. It is part of south Nashville just east of Highway 65, near Oak Hill. There were directions from there to Traveler's Rest Historic House 636 Farrell Pkwy. This property looks to be very close to 65. You can try the 1940 census which will ask if you know any adjoining roads which would Farrell Pkwy and 65. Traveler's Rest House has a web site which is very nice.

Do you know if Crieve Hall area was part of Nashville in 1940? If I had any Maxwell relatives left they would have probably been living in that area. Jesse Maxwell, my gggg-gf received a land grant in that area for his Revolutionary War service. He claimed an adjoining grant for the heirs of his deceased brother. They sold the property to John Overton who established Traveler's Rest Planation. His son John Overton Jr married Harriet Maxwell, my 1st cousin 4 times removed. Jr built the Maxwell Hotel in downtown Nashville. The oldest son of John Overton Jr was also named John Overton. He probably inherited the property and may have appeard on the 1940 census.
