Frank, Go to the Jo Daviess County USGENWEB site at http://users.rootsweb.com/~iljodavi/index.htm and scroll down to the Pico Search. Type in Enos Shaw and click on the Search button. Your will find 54 documents. Some of my lines stopped in Allegany County, New York on their way west. I thought it only fitting and proper to lend a helping hand.

He apparently came to Illinois in 1838 from Allegany County NY. He and his wife had at least one child Matilda Shaw. Enos wife's name was Sila Phippen. Does anyone have any information on Enos and Sila. Especially other children. Thank you very much for your assistance Frank [email protected]
