Husband of Mary Maxwell
William MAXWELL came from Westmoreland County in an early day with his wife Mary, and settled on the farm now owned by his son-in-law, James KIRKPATRICK. He died in 1876, and his wife in 1875. For some time after coming, the only method of transportation was by pack-horse along bridle paths. He gave ten acres of land, which has since been sold for $1,000, for a wagon, and considered it a good bargain. His daughter, Jane and Sarah Ann, both reside on the old farm, the latter being the wife of J. KIRKPATRICK before referred to. (History of Butler County Pennsylvania-1883)
