My ancestor, Warren Shaw, was born in 1808, in Johnstown, New York. His name is in the family bible. It says his parents were John and Persis. There are no dates for them. I've been looking for them for a long time. I've searched the Rootsweb data for several counties all over New York, and some in Vermont & Connecticut, but I haven't looked in Blenheim. I will do so now. Meanwhile, check and see if you can find any information for yourself in the Johnstown, Fulton County, area. Warren and Anthony could have been brothers. Please let me know if you find that Anthony's parents were John and Persis. EGarretson@aol.com wrote: > Hello, > > I am new on the rootsweb as of today.
