♂ Henry MAXWELL
Notizen zu dieser Person
Henry Maxwell was born in Kilsyth, Scotland, in 1852, the son of Alexander
Maxwell and Helen (nee McLeish). This town is about 12 miles from Glasgow, to
reach which he must habe passed through Kirkintilloch where Janet Rennie Millar
Watwon was born in 1858, the daughter of John Watson (a stonemason) and his
wife Jean Rennie (nee Millar).
No certain information has been uncovered relating to his early years, but
family memories credit him with having attended Edinburgh University. This
spell of learning must have been of short duration because at Lyttelton, New
Zealand, he disembarked from the steamship "Dunedin" in July 1874, the
passenger list in National Archives giving his occupation as "painter" and his
place of departure as Stirling, Scotland.
The next six years are also without written record, but in Christchurch in 1880
he married the 21 year old Janet Rennie Millar Watson who had also travelled to
New Zealand, and they continued in the Canterbury Province for some time, a
number of their nine children being born in Sheffield, North Canterbury.
From 1902 to 1919 Henry Maxwell officiated in Dunedin as Registrar of Births
and Deaths, and also as Inspector of Factories.
He died in Dunedin on 6 June 1931 aged 79 and lies buried in the Northern
Cemetery. His wife Janet died in December 1937, having outlived her husband by
six and a half years.
