I would be interested in any information you would have on these people. My family lived somewhere in NC in the 1790s. One of my 4th great uncles was named Henry Simpson Maxwell and was born in NC on 4 August 1794. He probably couldn't be the offspring of a marriage that took place in 1804, but I believe there must be some Maxwell-Simpson connection in my direct line. Simpson remained a common middle name in my family for generations. James M. Maxwell jmaxwell@volny.cz
