Misc. Notes
“At 75 years of age he rode a race horse that beat all the others. He always enjoyed breaking high spirited horses.

William Maxwell was assumed to be a lineal descendant of one of two brothers, William & Henry, who were sons of the Earl Maxwell of Humphries, Scotland, who were compelled to flee across to Ireland when Charles I King of England’s army was defeated and routed by Oliver Cromwell. They remained a short time in Ireland and then sailed to New York and went to Pennsylvania.

William ran away from home on account of his step-father, Mr. Adams, being cruel. He arrived in Ohio and married a Miss Shields. He was very tall and full of life”.
