Please post your line because there's more than one group of MAXWELLs in Philly/PA, and they've yet to be connected, i.e., we don't know which family you're interested in. Mary Richardson

Please see my recent post "James Alexander Maxwell." I'll repost it: ===== James Alexander Maxwell (b. ~1820). Married a woman surnamed Hall. Had at least one child: * Henry ("Harry") Maxwell (b. ~1851 in Pennsylvania; d. 1890). Married Annie Oakley (not the sharpshooter!, b. ~1854 in Pennsylvania). Had the following children: 1. Joseph Maxwell (b. ~1874) 2. Annie Maxwell (b. ~1876) 3. James Alexander Maxwell (b. Oct 10, 1877, Philadelphia; d. Apr 30, 1947, Narberth, PA). Married Martha Flinn. --> I have more information on their children. 4. William Maxwell (b. ~1880) These were most likely born in Philadelphia (I know that James Alexander [#3] was). ===== Contact me if something matches.
