Charles was the oldest and married Eliza Jane Hampton, who was from OHIO area. James died in Chicago and Charles and his father and his mother, Harriet White Shaw are buried in Chilicothe Cemetery in Chilicothe, ILL. I have been searching for their father, Joseph Shaw who was born in 1800 in Scotland near the Irish border and who traveled the first US highway from Maryland to Ohio as a saddler, etc. I am also searching for Harriet White's (SHAW) mother, Maria Primley. Harriet White Shaw was born APR 7, 1807 in Virginia. Any information or assistance will be greatly appreciated. Please email me at contreras_carol@yahoo.com.
