General Notes: Husband - Joseph Shaw


He was born of Scotch parents in Ireland, where, in early manhood, he married, and coming to America, he settled in Chartiers township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he reared a family of children.

He founded the Shaw family in Chartiers Township and was the original owner of the land, purchasing it in 1796 when it was mainly covered with native timber. He had three sons and two daughters.
