Well, I love the idea of listing names by alphabet. I wonder how long I might have to wait for Warren Shaw to come up? Actually, Claudia, I've been looking for John Shaw for several years, and haven't found the right one yet! When I get tired of looking for him, I go over to Jonathan Smith and his wife Anna Brown! If you have found my John and his wife Persis Shaw, who were in Johnstown, New York, in 1808, having a baby (Warren Shaw), please let me know.
