James Shaw and Grace Glover Clingan were my husband's 2nd great grandparents.  These are links to their Find A Grave memorials that I posted:

I have the information that I've been able to find on Ancestry (US).  I am trying to find more information on the Shaw and Clingan families.

Does anyone know if Grace's middle name (Glover) is a surname and which family that might be?  My husband's family had a tradition of naming every other generation (girls) were named Glover.  My husband's grandmother and his sister both are named Glover.

Yes, that was my posting and I did receive your note.  I have been trying today to find a definite link with the inscription that you sent but can't seem to find anything else that shows Grace as John's daughter.  The lists of his children don't seem to have a Grace or a Glover.  They have a Grissel but not with the right birth date.

I couldn't find the Monumental Inscriptions on line.  I was wondering if all of that information was on a headstone.  I'm sure that the James Shaw and Grace Clingen mentioned at the bottom is the right person but I don't have anything saying that she was indeed John's daughter and don't know which person would have been her mother.

Thanks for the census information.  I do have the census but I am having trouble getting information on Glover Grace's (her name is shown both ways on things) parents.

She married James Shaw about 1843 in Scotland.  They moved to the US in the mid-1850's and both died in Wisconsin.  They had 11 children.  Some were born in Scotland and the rest in the US.  All moved to the US except William who died in 1854 and was buried there.

I am looking for the parents of Glover Grace Clingan born October 1825 in Kirkpatrick, Kirkcudbrightshire. She married James Shaw, born 1818.  Her father possibly was John Clingan (married to Martha Heighle and Janet Wilson).
