    3. I'm trying to trace my MAXWELL family using what I know about their Quaker friends and relatives. Quaker immigration records show that Irish Quakers Thomas MILHOUS and family came to PA in 1729 and that his brother, Robert MILHOUS and family came to Kershaw County,SC in 1750. My non-Quaker William MAXWELL (d. 1796, SC) married Robert's granddaughter, Abigail Milhous (no dates). Her parents, John and Abigail (SLEE) seem to have come to SC with Robert's group. (John mentions Abigail and William in his will written in 1792, SC.) Some of the PA Quakers of Thomas' group, maybe even their friends, came down to SC to join Robert and his group. Other Quakers coming directly to SC from Ireland were Samuel Wyly, Josiah Tomlinson, Samuel Russell, John Wyly and Timothy Kelly. My MAXWELL family may have come to SC with Robert's group but then they could have come from PA with some of Thomas' group. Can you advise? Give resources?
