Thomas Maxwell a mariner thought to have been from Aberdeen (born
around the 1800s)left Scotland in the company of two other family
members (brother/cousin?) the others settled in other lands in route to
NZ.
The ship Thomas built (in NZ) and was lost at sea in was named the
"Sarah Maxwell"
His sons were named Robert, John, George, James ,Patrick and Andrew.

What is known of the sons who left NZ -

John left NZ 1848-49 abroad the "Oriental Queen" in route for the UK.
He was never heard from again.

Robert was shot at California in 1852 he survived and lived in the
Islands (dont know which Islands) he returned to NZ late in life

James and his wife settled in NSW Australia (he returned briefly to
settle land claims around 1870) he then had a son and daughter

Looking for anyone researching ABERDEEN MAXWELLS or the decendants of
Thomas Maxwell

Regards Joy (Germany)
