Hello Family and friends. Am searching for any and all info on John Shaw Jr born in Glossop, Derby, Eng. in ca 1815. Parents John and Hannah ( Wheatcroft ) Shaw. One brother Samuel. John Sr. and family left Eng. for Ireland. Then to Rhode Island in ca 1827. Moved to Bureau County,IL. in ca 1837. Now there is the possibility John Jr did not move to IL. as he was ca 22 at that time. Any and all help needed on my John Shaw Jr. Have the rest of his and my family. Thank you. Viola.
