Posted on: Shaw Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/Shaw/211 Surname: Shaw, Messer ------------------------- I am searching for the parents of Jane Shaw born around 1808 in Johnston Co NC who married James Bryant Messer on 27 Dec 1826 in Johnston Co NC/ They had 5 children, one of whom was my direct relative Dushee Aldridge Shaw Messer. Upon the death of her husband she moved to Bell Co Texas with her sons John and William. Both John and William were married, John to Mary Margaret Stewart and William to Matilda Jane Hunt. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
