Are there any Shaw family researches out there? I am looking for any info on this family. 1) Stella Bickford (Bigford) b/ 1864 m/ L.M. Shaw, 1884/5. She tried to divorce in May 1887 & was denied. She d/ Nov. 1887 at 23yrs 10 mos of age. She had a daughter, Julia b/ 1885. 2) L.M. Shaw b/18 July 1846-7 then m/ Irene Bickford (Bigford) abt. 1887-8. They had the following children; Benjamin b/ 1888 James b/ 1890 Matilda b/ 1892 Susanna b/ 1896 Irene Bickford was b/ 1873 in MO. Much as I can tell, Irene was 14 or 15 when she m/ Lafeyette Shaw & he was 41. Does anyone know who her parents were or where they were from? What relationship she was to Stella? Stella's parents were Charles & Lavina (Johnson) (Maness) Bickford. Any help or suggestions would be appriciated. Thank you in advance. Fran franvaughn@sbcglobal.net
