Wondering if this Joseph Shaw is connected to Noble & Ciscilly Nordyke Shaw of Guilford Co., NC. Noble, b c1786, was the son of Benjamin Shaw. I am sorry I cannot supply any more dates at the moment, my main computer is in the shop and my world connect site is off line at the moment. I believe Benjamin came down from NJ, they were a quaker family. My line ended up in Indiana. Benjamin>Noble>Aaron, b c 1809 NC>Morgan>Kossuth Napolion Shaw, b 1863 Morgan Co., IN, my great-grandfather.
