Bio
From Texas Deaths, 1890-1976: Name: James Smith Maxwell Event Type: Death Event Date: 21 Oct 1949 Event Place: Gatesville, Coryell, Texas, United States Gender: Male Marital Status: Married Birth Date: 24 Jun 1866 Birthplace: Glascow, Scotland Father's Name: John Maxwell born in Scotland Mother's Name: Elizabeth Smith born in Ireland Certificate Number: 47458 GS Film number: 2223536 , Digital Folder Number: 005144703 , Image Number: 03386 Citing this Record: "Texas, Deaths, 1890-1976," index and images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/K78V-VPM : accessed 16 December 2014), James Smith Maxwell, 21 Oct 1949; citing certificate number 47458, State Registrar Office, Austin; FHL microfilm 2,223,536. Demographics for James Smith Maxwell vary in his public records. U.S. Federal Census reports show his age as 30 (1910); 32 (1920); and 68 (1940), making his birth year 1872-1888. His tombstone and Texas Death Certificate show he was born in 1866. I will use these documents for his Find A Grave information. U.S. Federal Census reports show his birthplace as Scotland, except the 1910 report, where his birthplace is shown as New Zealand, which is marked out and an illegible location in England is added. Family history and his Texas Death Certificate indicate he was born in Glascow, Scotland. Find A Grave contributor, Charlotte #47196148, suggests James Smith Maxwell was born June 24, 1869, in Otago, New Zealand. Pending further documentation of this suggestion, his Find A Grave memorial will show his birth as June 24, 1866, in Glascow, Scotland.
