GEORGE SHAW OF ILKESTON
« on: Thursday 27 April 06 13:14 BST (UK) »
Hi I am trying to find out any info on George SHAW's family 1779c of Ilkeston. I know about his wife and his children but nothing about any brothers or sisters he may of had or indeed anything about his parents. I have hit a brick wall and would love to know more about George. There is a family story that he was related somehow to john Shaw who became known as a cossall giant during the Battle of Waterloo, but this is again something I have been unable to confirm. Please if anyone can help please contact me as this would help a lot.
Many thanks
Rachie

Hi Rachie
Could you please give more information, such as his wife's name, as there were several George Shaws born about that time. Thanks!
