Thomas and Mary (Miller) Maxwell

ker17moh — 19 Oct 2008 8:54:56 GMT

I am looking for information on John Miller who married Margaret Finley. He was from Ohio Co, VA and died there during the 1830's. He was born about 1790.

John and Margaret (Finley) Miller had 3 children:
Samuel Finley Miller (1834-1834)
Mary Eleanor Miller (1835-1920) m. Thomas Maxwell
Margaret Ann Miller (1836-1908) m. James Wishart

In a letter than I have from Rev. John Miller Wishart, D.D. (who did a great amount of research on the Finley family) dated 1936 talks about the Maxwell family that has 'Grandmother Miller's Bible'. I would like to find the Bible and their descendants.

I have a large amount of information on the Finley and the Wishart families, but nothing about John Miller.

Is anyone able to help me with this? I collect all kinds of information. Birth, marriage, death, deeds, Bible records, newspapers, anything.

Seth and Laura Maxwell Towne

JanetDishon — 14 Dec 2008 3:24:36 GMT

I am looking for information on Richard M. Sheppard. He is listed on the 1930 Aberdeen, Grays Harbor, Washington Census as a nephew of Jesse N. and Grace M. Snow Towne. He was 2 years and 5 months of age. Also listed were another nephew, Robert C. Towne (5 yr) and niece Betty L. Towne (4 yr. 3 mo) and Grace's mother Elizabeth Snow. Robert and Betty were children of Seth Towne. (Seth and Jesse were brothers) I believe his wife was Laura Maxwell. At the time the census was taken Seth was living in Everett, Snohomish Co., Washington. He had another child, Hazel, who was not listed on the census with Jesse. Seth died in Nov. 1930. I cannot connect Richard to anyone. I don't have much on Grace and thought maybe he could be a nephew through her, if not through the Towne family. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maxwell , American Indian I'm getting closer...

Fred — 4 Mar 2001 12:11:50 GMT

A Maxwell family from Delaware. Here is how it goes...As per 1900 Delaware census John W. Maxwell b.Sept. or Oct. 18 1815 d.May 2, 1902, his wife Irene Jacobs b.Aug. 12, 1853 d.May 30,1921. Children are as follows John Thomas Maxwell, John F. Maxwell, Wilbur John Maxwell, Elias Golden Maxwell, Roland Painter Maxwell, Loleta or Loita Turtle Maxwell, Carabel May Maxwell All born in Georgetown, Delaware. As you can see by some of the middle names Golden, Painter and Turtle I'm very close. Or their parents played a lousy joke on them. LOL

From what I have been told the mother Irene Maxwell whose maiden name is Jacobs is half Indian. It's her parents that are the Indian's.

Some of these Maxwell's moved to Camden, NJ around 1910 and lived ther up until today. If anybody can help me with anything I would surely appreciate it.

Thanks

Maxwells in Elk County, Kansas

DeniseK711 — 10 May 2008 1:41:10 GMT

Hello,
I am looking for information on the Maxwell family in Elk Falls, Elk county, Kansas.
Here is an overview of the information I have
David B. Maxwell married Mary Jane Allen
about 1865 in Iowa
David B. Maxwell was born about March 1834 New York and I believe died 1904 in Wisconsin.
Mary Jane Allen was born 1 April 1843 Indiana and died about 1926 in Washington. She is buried in Elk Falls.

David and Mary had 5 children that I know of
John L. Maxwell 17 October 1864 (Iowa) - 21 March 1888 (Buried Elk Falls, Kansas)
Ersula born about 1867 Iowa
Catherine (Kate) born 3 June 1869 (Iowa) died 10 April 1945 Lewis County, Washington
Ellsworth Allen born 18 April 1876 (Kansas) died 1940 (buried Elk Falls, Kansas)
Jessie Maxwell born October 1880 Kansas

I have no ideal who Jessie or Ersula may have married, if they stayed in Elk county, Kansas or moved away

Ellsworth Allen Maxwell married Anna (don't know her last name) about 1897
they had 4 children
Earl David 1898 (Wisconsin) - 1979 (buried Elk Falls, Kansas)
Mary born April 1900 (Wisconsin)
Francis William 1902 (Wisconsin)- 1983 (buried Elk Falls, kansas)
Orval Allen 1904 (Kansas) - 1982 (buried Elk Falls)

I believe David married Norma Sprague about 1918. I do not know if they had any children.

I believe Orval married a Cora Faye, do not know her last name or if they had any children.
I do not know if Francis William or Mary were ever married or had children.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for your help
take care
Denise

Frank J. MAXWELL: estate heir 1912

grizziesgirl — 10 Apr 2008 7:18:09 GMT

6 Oct 1912, Jacob K. ZIMMERMAN died at The Elms Hotel in Excelsior Springs, Mo., age about 70. He died leaving neither widow nor will but an estate worth more than a million dollars. It read like a serial in the Kansas City Star as people sent their family trees in hopes of proving they were a legitimate heir. In all, there were twenty-seven heirs, one of them was my gg grandfather, John Hancock MARTIN, a tailor in Kansas City and "nephew of the half-blood" to Mr. ZIMMERMAN. On the list of grand-nephews of the whole-blood was Frank J. MAXWELL; no address was published.

Here is my family relationship to Jacob K. ZIMMERMAN: Jacob's mother was Hannah (Clark) MARTIN (1798-1875), widow of Thomas D. MARTIN; Hannah and Thomas MARTIN had one son who lived to adulthood: William Davison MARTIN (29 Jul 1820-2 Mar 1896) father of John Hancock MARTIN. Hannah was widowed in 1823 and was remarried to John ZIMMERMAN with Jacob K. born about 1841; Jacob had three sisters whose names I do not know. The MARTIN family, and allied lines, are to be found in Dauphin, and Lebanon Counties of Pennsylvania. A newspaper article places Jacob ZIMMERMAN's burial at "his old home in Hanover, Pa." Assuming the reference is to the town rather than several small townships, this would be York County.

I hope to find a MAXWELL descendant who has information on our common ancestors and perhaps a story or two about the inheritance. I'm glad to share newspaper articles and other family notes.

Ada Maxwell

Golitlygal — 7 Apr 2008 9:01:13 GMT

I have a picture of my mother sitting on an old car with her adopted parents and her birth mother and on her adoption papers the mothers name was Ada Maxwell Covington. This was around the San Angelo Texas area in 1922 and mother always said she went to a funeral and it was for this woman and she always thought she was her aunt and then found out it was her mother. If anyone is interested to look at this picture to maybe identify the person i would be glad to email it to you. Thanks for any help. Jan Palmer

The Maxwell Killing
Cisco, Texas, May 9: News has just reached here of a shooting near Gunsight in Stephens County last night. JIM MAXWELL’S wife had left him and gone to her father’s, Mr. SHAHOZO, and yesterday evening, he went there and, it is said, tired to persuade her to return home with him, but this her friends objected to and Maxwell in his rage, it is said, shot Mr. Shahozo twice then shot at his wife and a preacher by the name of FORD, and started to shoot his mother-in-law, but she begged him out of the notion. He and his brothers, who were waiting for him at the gate, then emptied their shooting irons into the house, unloosed their horses from the wagon and left on horseback. Mr. Shahozo died this morning. Maxwell has not as yet been captured. Parson FORD shot at Maxwell twice as he was leaving. No one was hurt except Mr. Shahozo.

Dorcas Maxwell born 1765, MA

BMKrall — 4 Feb 2008 8:22:20 GMT

Dorcas Maxwell b. April 13, 1762, Bedford, MA was the daughter of Col. Hugh Maxwell and Bridget Monroe.

I am puzzled about her marriage to a Kirkland. I have found a couple of references to husband, Samuel and also Joseph.

Town of Huntington [Gazetteer of Hampshire Co, MA] claims Samuel b. 1765, son of John Kirkland, married Dorcas Maxwell.

History of Franklin County, MA, pg 787, claims Dorcas married Samuel.

Heath MA records claim Dorcas, wife of Joseph Kirkland Esq, she was born April 13, 1765.

Perhaps Samuel and Joseph were brothers, or the same person.
Does anyone have any information or ideas on this Dorcas?

His father was Harold Edward (sisters Grace Poulsen and Blanche Collins)who married Thelma Eloine Wiles. My g-grandfather was Edward (unknown bro/sis) who married Maude Mae.

Adrian appears in Butte, California in 1918 – World War I Draft Card shows his wife is Alice. Full name for Alice is Alice Elizabeth Deardoff (I believe).

1930 Census shows Adrian in Santa Barbara, California – Wife is Eva. Children are Louise N. Maxwell and Adrian I Maxwell. (Eva’s full name is Eva Lena Romohr – I believe.)

I'm looking for information on a family of Maxwells living in the Townland of Tirkernaghan, Parish of Donaghedy, County Tyrone in the mid-1850s. My gg-grandfather, Robert Monteith, married Margaret Maxwell 08 Sep 1853 at the Donagheady Parish Church, Northwest of Strabane. Margaret's father was John Maxwell. His date of birth is probably around 1800. Any information would be most appreciated. Thanks, Rob
