Ron & All - Below is from church records in Pettigo regarding two William Shaws. I had posted BMD records on FG about a year ago, so you might be able to find records like this on their website. Hope this is the right one for you, Ron. :-) Surname Christian Birth Baptism Father Mother Address Shaw William 03/09/1860 08/09/1860 John Mary DRUMCHEERAN Shaw William 31/07/1844 26/08/1844 Matthew Mary DRUMKEERAN - Jane > Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2015 18:00:04 +1200 > To: FERMANAGH-GOLD@rootsweb.com > Subject: FERMANAGH-GOLD William Mathew Shaw > From: fermanagh-gold@rootsweb.com > > Kia Ora > > I'm looking for info on a William Mathew shaw, father, ?Mathew Shaw.
