About Patrick Maxwell
Lived 1869 – 1902 (aged 32). Patrick Maxwell was a cricketer.
Patrick Arthur Maxwell (10 July 1869 – 17 March 1902) was an Irish first-class cricketer and medical doctor.
Maxwell was born at Dublin, one of four Maxwell brothers who were educated in England at Ushaw College. It is likely he studied at Trinity College, Dublin, given his later, albeit brief, career as a medical doctor. Playing his club cricket in Dublin for Dublin University, Maxwell made his debut in first-class cricket for the university against the Marylebone Cricket Club at College Park in May 1895. In June, he toured England with the university, playing a further two first-class matches against Cambridge University at Cambridge, and Leicestershire at Leicester. He emigrated to Australia not long after, where he practiced medicine at Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.
