New Comments Added

One of the problems with this page as it gets longer is that new comments - all of which are welcome - tend to get lost in the mists of time, especially if they refer to original postings made sometime ago.

I'm trying to alert readers by adding additional cross-referencing here.

In which regard, these two entries have had comments added recently:

The Maxim family.

and

The Transportation of Jabez Copsey

I hope this will help searchers.

Go on, go on, goon. ... or... Better late than ...

With humble apologies, I am including this request from Tricia, which somehow got lost in a welter of nonsense sometime earlier this year. I hope it is not TOO late.

Sorry.

I am doing a One Name Study on the name MAXIM and I am a member of the Guild of One Name Studies, affectionately known as the GOONS! No rude comments, please. The name Maxim has it's roots mainly in Suffolk, but partly over the border in Essex, in the villages of Foxearth, the Belchamps, Pentlow etc. There were a lot of Maxims in Glemsford and in the surrounding areas of Cavendish, Hartest, Clare etc. The line I am connected to has beginnings in Cavendish, Boxted, Bury St. Edmunds before eventually ending up in London.

I would be very interested to hear from anyone, who has connections to the name Maxim. You never know, we may be cousins!!

Thank you
Tricia Campbell
