Hi, I'm still looking for the parents of Catherine Vance who married Nathan Shaw. He was born in 1790 and she was born in 1789. Here is the situation.....all the records I find (including those from Fayette Co. books) show that she is Catherine Vance, however, these records also state that she is the daughter of Crawford Vance and Susan Clayton. The census records, etc.. show Crawford's birthdate as 1806 (approx) so it's impossible that he is her father. After trying to find this Catherine Vance for 30 years or more, I am now at the conclusion that maybe Nathan was married to a Catherine by another surname and that her last name was not Vance. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks for your help.
