Hi Geoff E, thanks for replying but it's not the right robert Maxwell. I have that Marraige Certificate which i thought was right but it's not. I've purchased other Certificates but none turned out to be the right one, i'll just have to keep on looking.
Many Thanks

Cumberland Lookup Requests / Missing relative
« on: Monday 20 March 06 17:59 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, could anyone help me trace Robert Bone/Bain Maxwell, he was born in 1878 in Harrington Cumberland. His parents were Thomas & Isabella Maxwell. I've traced him as far as 1909 when he was a witness at his brother John's Wedding to Ester Wren in the Parish Church Crosscanonby.
I have done alot of searching but he just seems to have disappeared, could anyone tell me did he Marry and if so to whom, did he have any children and lastly where is he buried.
Your help would be very much appreciated
cheers elaine

 Hi, i'm researching my Maxwell family tree my gt gt gt grandfather was Thomas Maxwell who lived & worked at Allanton Mill Dunscore from the 1840's until his death in 1882.He married Agnes Maxwell in 1839 in Barr and had 16 children.I'm trying to find out if Agnes was his cousin,as most families tended to inter marry especially when they wanted to protect their lands etc.Also i'm sure we follow the line of the Earl's of Nithsdale but i can't find any definate proof.Please can anyone help
kind regards Elaine
