About 1832 he was united in marriage with DELILAH Bolon, a native of Virginia, but who went to Harrison County, Ohio, with her parents at an early day. Three children were born to them in Ohio: Jonathan, our subject; Helen K. and Thaddeus W., who are both engaged in farming in Springdale Township, Cedar Co., Iowa. Determining to seek a more favorable locality in the spring of 1839 Mr. Maxon emigrated to Iowa with his family, coming by steamer by way of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, landing at Muscatine in the month of May, and being thirteen days en route. He immediately proceeded to Cedar County, where he made claim to 320 acres of land, which he afterward entered, and where he made his home until the spring of 1866, when he sold out and purchased forty acres adjoining the town site of West Liberty, to whom the family removed, and where he resided until his death, which occurred in 1877. The 40-acre tract, with the exception of seven acres, was platted and sold in small lots. After coming to Iowa three more children were born: Louisa, now the widow of Exum Saint, of Denver, Col., Eliza, now engaged in farming in the Cedar County, Iowa; and Willard, now Superintendent of the Poor Farm in Cedar County.
