Posted on: Shaw Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/Shaw/226 Surname: Shaw ------------------------- I recently received a copy of the Civil War pension record for a Joseph Shaw, thinking perhaps there was a link to my Eastman surname (an E. Eastman was listed as guardian). Since I could find no mention of Eastman in the record, I would be happy to forward it to a Shaw researcher. His widow was Jane Courtier (sp)and their children were listed as Samuel b. 12-11-1851; Charles Henry b. 4-27-1853; Sally Ann b. 8-31-1860; at one point there were six children under the age of six, and Jane was having difficulty collecting widow's pension because she could not produce a marriage certificate. Joseph was in Co B 8th regiment of Wisconsin Volunteers.
