My email address (*) so if you could send it to me that would be brilliant. I will take lots more photos of the area and post them up on that website as well. I think you really enjoy a trip over here because it is a lovely part of the country where the shaws came from and there's lots of great places to stay in the area.

Hi Mick

As suggested by the Moderator, I have sent you a 4 part message that includes the 2,500 word summary and  information on "our Shaw's".

I hope that it makes sense to anyone reading it. I have had no way of confirming some of the detail and have only gone by what I have discovered, but it still is exciting.

Best of luck to you and regards

Gary

Hi Gary,
The information you gave me was brilliant and very interesting thanks a million. I only have a few questions that i was wondering if you could answer to it does matter like if you can't. I was just wondering do you know what Rose Shaw's maiden name was who was married to Michael Shaw and do you know when the date Agnes and Rose-anna shaw were born?

Thanks Michael

G/day Michael

Thanks for your message.

As I mentioned before, they are not direct relatives as such, so my research has not really gone into much depth into their lives.

What has been glanced upon though, and in answer to your question, Rose Shaw’s maiden name might have been McMahon. She died in 18th April 1910 at age of 74 so that would equate to a birth date of around 1836. Her daughter Agnes is mentioned on the entry.

As for your other question, Agnes, a spinster died on 21st September 1913 aged 45 so her birth date might have been around 1868 and a Thomas Shaw (her brother!!) is mentioned in the entry. Roseanne I am not sure on at all.

There are several other lineage lines of Shaw’s that I have tried to link up, but I have not gone into any depth on them, again, because of them be distant to us.

Having said that, your question has got me really interested.

All of the above could well be open for correction, and I would welcome the clarification if this is so.

Regards

Gary
