Hello Maggie, I am not sure I can help you, but we do have some of the same SHAW names running in our lines. My Robert Shaw, b. 1800 Va. married Paulina Noble 1832 in Howard Co.,Mo. My Robert names his first son David Alexander Shaw. David names his first son Alexander Shaw. So Alexander is a name that runs through my line. Also the name Noble. Paulina Noble was the daughter of James Noble, b. 1758 MD. My Shaw line comes out of VA., spends time in KY. and finally ends up in Missouri. Bill Ramsey

Thanks Bill One of these days I just might get more information on this Scottish family. I have put your details in my 'maybe' for the future.
