Sir Charles Clarkson Martin Maynard had some very interesting relations:
He was born in Burma. His father was a Surgeon.
Charles' nephew was Air Vice Marshall Forster Herbert Martin Maynard of WW1 fame.
Charles was the Great Grandson of John Clarkson, abolitionist and brother of Thomas Clarkson. John was a naval officer and travelled around the UK gathering evidence for the abolition movement. Later he sailed to Canada and led several ships of freed slaves back to Africa where he helped to found Sierra Leone and became it's first Governor. John's daughter Sophia was Sir Charles' Grandmother.
Charles' maternal grandfather Charles Ford 1816-1864 FRCS was born in India and lost at sea in the 'Persia' during a cyclone. He served in the Indian Mutiny 1857
Charles married Dorothy Davidson in 1909. Dorothy was the Great Granddaughter to Assyriologist Rev Edward Hincks, the journalist and MP Robert Spankie and Rev Theophilus Blakely Dean of Connor and Down.

revised to my last comment - he wrote about the MURMANSK campaign and my grandfather served in Russia on the same campaign as a Russian Interpretor.
