  Reviewing my information it appears fairly definite that James was born in Liverpool (though all statements could have originated from a single source) but family were living in Dumfries by the time Mary met James. At the time of their marriage Mary was living at Wednesbury and James an address in Birmingham.  If they applied for a special licence where could I enquire for a record of application or issue ?I understand that Birmingham was easy to reach by rail from any direction? Mary said "I went out to work at about 17, met and married James Maxwell" all seemingly in a short space of time - fits with her being 18 at time of marriage but she could have worked and met James in Ayrshire or Dumfries seems more likely than Birmingham I think. Emigration agent was in Birmingham; possibly Aurora started voyage before leaving Gravesend ? Liverpool?
