Thanks for adding the extra images and info. Also adding this link for a little more details for this post http://forums.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=137260044

We naturally have not seen your reference material that you have access to, but just trying to work through with you what is available online on Scottish records.

Are you happy with the Clingan side for the family of Grace? I certainly would be up to the period of her parents, John Clingan and Janet Wilson. Just a note from that gravestone (might just be a type that you had). The Clingan stone states that James and Grace's son died in 1854 rather than 1864.

Regarding the Shaw side for James, hopefully with the details above, you will have greater confidence that you are on the right track for James' parents with Samuel and Nicholas. You have census details now and likely death registration for Samuel to check on to help you further with your research.

For James Shaw the 1841census for Samuel Shaw shows James as 20 but it does not add up to his birth for 1818 which is when my James Shaw was born. Am I just reading something Wrong

Standard History of Waupaca County Wisconsin by John M. Wade 1917 shows Samuel with wife Mary so this is why I get confused about Samuel with wife Nicholas.

Thank you for this, only had half of it. Could not find death notice for James Shaw. There is a wonder about his parents bring Samuel and Mary or Samuel and Nicholas.

I found a Samuel Shaw 1841 census Scotland with place of birth as Kirkcudbrightshire. county Kirkcudbrightshire, estimated birth 1791,parish Kirkpatrick Durham.
Also found Mary Shaw, born Scotland,parish Kirkmabreck, county Kirkcudbrightshire and estimated birth 1792.
Could these two be the parents of James Shaw.
