What evidence do you have that he used them for relativity? I don't know 
of any published work of his that refers to relativity or uses these 
equations. Just because they were the transforms known at the time does 
not mean everyone used them in their work.

After all, there are lots of things that are known today that you don't 
use either.

Where have you heard James Clerk Maxwell's name in the context of 
relativity? There is plenty mention of his name in the context of 
electrodynamics and thermodynamics.
