Martha McMillan is the daughter of John McMillan and Elizabeth (Pickett) McMillan.[1]
Martha married Gavin Maxwell on July 14, 1848, in Eastwood, Renfrewshire, Scotland.
The family is listed as living in Renfrwshire, Scotland in the 1851 and 1861 Scotland Census, and from this we know that they traveled to America after 1861.

William Thompson Maxwell (1855 - 1883)
Charles Maxwell (1867 - 1952)
