Wanda, I just received by mail a xerox copy of the will of Patrick Shaw of Guilford County, NC dated "February Court(?) 1802". I would guess that someone wrote it out copied as closely as possible from the original since the signatures all seem to be in the same hand writing and the only signature that says "his mark" is Patrick's. However, I can make out part of a handwritten number in the top right-hand corner and it seems to be a page in a book that has been copied. A file # is also written at the top left. As soon as I can type it up, I will let the list know that it is available and I will either try to post it to the list, or e-mail it to those interested on request. It may not be too easy, since the handwriting, while flowing and flowery, is not always easy to read. Ruth from Colorado who sent it to me is trying to track down the exact sources of this and other material she sent me. Will pass that on, too, when I get it.

Hello, Are there any other descendants of Greenberry Shaw out there? He is my husband's ggg grand father and had quite a few children but have family history for only Shepherd (gg grandfather. He had other sons named Ansolem, Crawford, James and Francis M and daughters named Luzana, Luzetta, Martha and Charlotte. Greenberry is one of Patrick and Nancy Shaw's descendants. His father was William son of Hugh son of Patrick. Barb Shaw

Does anyone have a Mary Nixon SHAW b.1735 d.1786 married a Robert Miller b.1734 d. 1787? Just recently found they are ancestors. Also, Henry Miller b.1803 d. 1859 married to Annie Shaw b. 1809 d. 1863. About the only information I have is that Annie was born in Indiana Co., PA. Thanks Lillian LSchiendel@aol.com

Deb, I often suspect that, as others have indicated, whole families came over at one time or followed each other. That would account for similar names popping up. I do know that the names William Shaw, and Samuel Shaw show up a lot, and a few Patricks. I know of quite a few Shaws who did settle in PA, near where my husband's ancestors were, including a William, but as far as I can find, none were any kin of mine. Also, of course, certain names are popular at different times. These are not unusual names. And, no, there is no indication that William was an Indian trader or that he had his feet cut off by the indians, although it is documented that he fought the indians before the Rev. War. His Rev. War service is well documented, and afterwards, he moved south with his family.

Hi Jane, I have been following the SHAW surnames and finally recognized a name. I have many SHAWS that came from Ireland, stayed in Massachstts for awhile then went to southern Illnois. The name SETH is one in my line. His parents were William SHAW and Mary KANE. Both came from Ireland to Palmer-Brinfield, Hampden Cty, Mass. Their children were: Joshua b 1687 m Ann ? d 2 Mar 1776; David b1691 m Mary BLACKWOOD d 4 Jul1775; Seth b 1707 m Jane ERWIN d 29 Mar 1731; William and Mary with no further info. With the age difference I am wondering if there is any chance they could be related. My information came from family so I have no other confirmation on dates. I belong to several surname lists and as yet have not had any luck connecting but maybe some day.

I do know that "a" Patrick Shaw was there...he is listed on an early survey, along with a Samuel Shaw (before 1800).

PS to Deb, Ooops, you asked about Patrick, not William. The only location in the colonies that I know of for Patrick was Guilford County, NC where he died.

Deb and others, According to Paul R. Shaw, William moved to TN after the Revolutionary War, then moved to Fayette Co., AL by 1860. He says Glenda Todd of Winchester, TN and Noble Shaw of Rio Vista, CA have more information on the families of William's children. Contact Paul R. Shaw for their addresses: Rt. 4, Box 4952, Mi9neola, TX 75773-9334; prshaw80@hotmail.com; phone-903-569-9902; fax- 903-769-4443 (Info provided Jan 31, 2000.)

My information on William came from the National Archives Trust Fund Board Files 127, pp 1-2, NC Marriage Bonds 1744-1868 and Church records from Drumbo, Ireland on file with the LDS as well as numerous e-mails with researchers. My info on Joseph Shaw, Sr. and his son, Thomas J. Shaw came partly from the Ancestry of William Patrick McLaurin - World Connect, research by Rex McLaurin, and the Jobe Branches website. As to William being Thomas' father, if my dates are correct, William was b. 1758, d. 1842, age 84; Thomas was born 26 Apr 1836. While it is possible, I guess, it seems unlikely that William sired Thomas at age 78. However, his only known wife was 70 years old at that time. What IS possible, is that Thomas was not the son of Joseph, but of his brother William Shaw, Jr., b. 1795. Even if it is in several places the other way round, mistakes can be made and then copied by others (like me). On the other hand, your lady from Texas may be wrong.

I have moved recently and my files are not with me, but, I seem to remember a woman named Betty in TX that has William Shaw as Thomas' father. She had lots of seemingly well researched information. Velma's info does not suggest this and I'm wondering about sources. By the way, I have Patrick's will at home (isn't someone looking for it?) Hugh, if I'm not mistaken, was in TN. My Shaws were in Jefferson/Tuscaloosa/Sanford/Lamar Cos of AL. He was John Shaw b 1798 SC, married Mary Lawley. Besides my John and your Joseph, there was an Archibald Shaw in that area. I can't connect their families, but people in Millport AL today say they were all related. We know that Archibald was from the Wilmington NC area (bc1775) and he had been in Abbeville SC along with Samuel Shaw (his father, probably) in the earliest censuses. Gilbert Shaw of GA, and probably Gardner Shaw of NC>GA was also connected to this family. There were also Shaws north of the Lamar Co Shaws. Adamson Tannehill Shaw et al. Frances Baker Lawley, the mother of my Mary Lawley, had Ninian Tannehill sign as her witness when her husband died and the estate was dealt with.... I also know that the Tannehills and Shaws were connected even earlier (before the Rev war) in PA. This is worth the study, since these are the Shaws that increased so in numbers and started the westward movement of our family. Anybody have any ideas?

Posted on: Shaw Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/Shaw/10280 Surname: SHAW, DEVOE ------------------------- Looking for relatives from the marriage of Oliver and Lucinda (DeVoe) Shaw. Oliver born 8-8-1824 Canada and died 1-1-1902 Cherokee City AR. Anyone related to his sibs ?

I also came across that info about Patrick and a brother Samuel who died on the same day in the same place. I contacted the woman who posted that, but she had no further info and didn't say where she got the info. I will look at those dates you mention and see what I think. I came across someone who claimed to have a lot of info on Patrick's family from a trip to Ireland. He then found out they were not his ancestors! I asked for help, but he said he had given the materials to another man who would share with me. I contacted this second man twice, but he did not reply. Oh, well. I guess some folks don't want to share. I will try to find your material online. You can't give me the exact link, can you?

Hi, Velma I am just getting started on our line of the Shaw family. My husband's grandfather abandoned the family when his son was just a baby so up until early this spring we had no idea of any ancestors at all. Everything I learn is completely new to our family so I have no immediate family to have access to any records. Just a whole bunch of new cousins!! This is the e-mail address of a man who visited Ireland and talked to some of the Shaws related to Patrick...gngshaw@fone.net..as it turned out there was no direct link to Patrick but he has some interesting experiences. I have a problem with birth dates for Hugh..if he were born in 1772, then his children's dates dont work..I have an alternate date of 1755 but no confirmation of that and in that case..Patrick and Nancy were not yet married. I also have Patrick and a possible brother, Samuel, dying on the same date in NC. My info is on Gencircles.com if you would like to look it over and tell me corrections or additions.

Hi Deb, Well, after a couple of corrections, my Thomas Jefferson Shaw's parents were Joseph Shaw Sr and Sarah Marshall. Joseph is originally from Guilford County NC and his branch of the family went to AL from there. Does this make a connection for you? Barb

No, I couldn't find a marriage date for Joseph and Sarah Marshall. I got started with information supplied by Gil Roberts, then went to a family reunion where I got a LOT of living and fairly recent (last three or four generations) information on my very extended family. I then went to Alabama and researched in the Sanford library genealogical information. Right now, I have a lot of information that I am still trying to enter into my data base and some interesting photos, too. If anyone knows of a connection of this extended family having connections with a logging camp, I would be interested. I have a photo of the operation, which I believe came from Gil. I am trying to enter even the rather large extended family because I know how I struggled for so long with no information at all on my Shaw family. I would like to be able to help somebody else avoid that frustration, if possible. I am STILL looking for information on my grandmother, Lena Wates, who married Hugh A. Shaw, son of William (Billy) J. Shaw and Sarah Ann Gann. I cannot find the Wates family in or near Guin, AL!
