Thanks. If you do have any Shaw lineages from northeastern NC, please post them on the list or e-mail them to me off-list please. I'm helping plan a July reunion for our branch.

My gg-gdad is Samuel Til Shaw born in TX, b. 15 Feb 1852. on later censuses, he claimed that his parents were both from N.C. I have just found him and siblings living with a older female that I presume is his mother. They are listed like this: Lamar County Texas 1870 Census 406-461 Shaw, R.C. wf 36 N.C. " S.T. wm 18 TX " J.C. wm 16 TX " S.W. wf 10 TX " R.E. wf 8 TX " Eliza wf 4 TX there are other people listed in the house with them, by the names Smith, Reed, and Dicky that are from TX and TN... Samuel Til Shaw married Mary Elizabeth Scott in 1873 in Lamar County,TX. They started a family and had several children. One of the daughters is Mary Francis "Mollie" Shaw b.1874 "Mollie" married Columbus A."Lum" Nance b.1865, they married in Lamar Co. "Lum's" father is Hudson J.Nance b.1818 "Lum's" mother is Caroline Matilda Shaw b.1831, Hudson J. is the son of John Nance. Caroline's parents are Tilman Shaw and Susannah ? They all are from Randolph County, N.C. I am guessing that "my" Samuel Til Shaw's father and Caroline Matilda Shaw Nance and her father Tilman are related. ? _____Shaw married to R.C. ? I have only researched Texas, does anyone on this list have anything on any of these people in North Carolina? I am happy to share what I have with anyone interested. iistravis@yahoo.com Travis W.
