Biography

This profile describes Henry Shaw who became the spouse of Sarah Miner. His ancestry and place of origin are not certain. Whereas this profile previously gave his birthplace as Great Harwood, Lancashire, England, there is as yet no evidence for that.

Note: An online database contains a record for a Henry Shaw who was born or Christened in 1719 in East Hampton, New York [1]. This reference is a series of typewritten transcriptions of records garnered from several parishes among the British colonies. The specific page where this record for Henry Shaw appears is on image 733 (of 1,922) [2]. The listed father of that particular Henry Shaw is given as Richard Shaw. In the same online database the Richard Shaw (1692 - 1736) appears as the spouse of Patience (Ludlum; 1796 -). There is no certainty that such listings pertain to the subject of this profile, as no documentary evidence has been cited to support any of those relationships [3].

Henry Shaw married 4 Jan 1749 @ Lyme, Connecticut, Sarah Miner [4]. Their children may have included:

  • Samuel Shaw, b. 11 Apr 1745
  • Sarah Shaw, b. 21 Sep 1754
  • Mary Minor (Shaw) Hinman (1758-1824)' married Moses Hinman [Not certain that she was a child of this family]
  • James Shaw, b. 16 Apr 1760
  • Eunice Shaw, b. 30 Jun 1762; married Walter Branch

A parent should not have died before they were 12 years old.

A father's death date should not be more than nine months before one of his children's birth dates.
