Hello. My ggrandfather had a brother John Shaw who i was told was killed by a man surname ELLIS in 1850 in York county. But dont know what state. Has any one ever heard this story in their family? Thank you. Viola.
Hello Viola: I have two John H. Shaws, one being my father now deceased b. 1936 in New Jersey. The other his father b. bet. 1910-1916 in New York or New Jersey. His father was Isaac Shaw from Maryland. Isaac married a Janet Jack in New York City, he went there to work on the Holland Tunnel. I have had a hard time tracking them down. I had been told Isaac was born in Scotland, which really fouled me up, turns out he was born in MD and his family came from PA, prior to that. I have had the hardest time trying to track them down. (now that I am not looking in Scotland really helps)! Saw your post and thought I would inquire, do your Shaws come from PA or the Baltimore area of Maryland?? I wish I could help as far as your story of a John Shaw killed by Mr. Ellis goes, but have not gotton that far with my Shaws.
