Arthur, are you descended from Thomas Maxwell who is supposed to have lived in Virginia and his son, Thomas Maxwell, Jr., who moved to Georgia? I have done no research on my Maxwell line, but do have a reference that the Georgia descendants of Thomas Maxwell, Jr. "have been told for generations that the earliest Maxwell, of our line, who came to America was Joel Maxwell." The author had visited in 1927 with "Sir Herbert Eustice Maxwell in Whigtowshire, near Whauphill." Good luck in your hunt. Betty |
