Hi Rose, You are most welcome. I have tried my best to link my Anthony Shaw b. Blenheim Schoharie Co... NY in 1805 to this family. I know his father's name was John. I have the will of Anthony Shaw IV and John is listed in it. However, people who have typed this will in the past left John's name out of it and everyone is copying that incorrect will. You may be interested in the following which I copied from a family history by Anna Shaw Dumford "SHAW FAMILY". I think I copied it from a book when I was in Salt Lake City but I think it is on microfilm also. It is a typed genealogy which was microfilmed by the Church Nov 18, 1985. "Anthony Shaw, son of Anthony and Susannah Remington Shaw, was a soldier of War of 1812, for which service his widow received in the year of 1850, September 20, - 40 acres of bounty land and March 1855, she received 120 acres more. (This from Archives of Bounty Land, Washington, D.C.) "He entered the service at Salt Licks (Adams Co. and Brown Co.). The Salt Licks were salt wells where the pioneer ancestors and Indians obtained their salt. Anthony's service record was September 2, 1812 to November 19, 1812. He was a private under Abraham Shepherd's Company, Col. Stafford Reg. of Ohio Military. "Anthony Shaw married Miss Sarah Niles, (born in Rhode Island) August 3, 1806, at Stephentown, New York. Later he migrated to Ohio with two small children in 1810; crossed to Pittsburgh, PA, by horsedrawn wagons and boarded the flat boats to Ripley, Ohio." Rose, there is more in this copied from Beer's (Baer"s) Brown County History of 1883 page 660. You probably have this, if not I'll type it for you. I have the ancestors of your Anthony Shaw if you so desire. Hope this helps. Eleanor from California
