Biography

The birth date and place for this Samuel Shaw is a guess, based solely on the birth date and place of his wife, Rachel (Veazie) Hilton Shaw.

Samuel Shaw married[1] Jun 5, 1803, in Portland, Maine, Rachel Hilton (resident of Portland).

The gravestone[2] for Rachel Shaw in Eastern Cemetery, Portland, Maine, under "Husbands of the Deceased:", has "Samuel Shaw / was lost at sea / June 1818."

The obituary[3] of Samuel's widow, Rachel Shaw, mentions him as "the late Capt Samuel Shaw."
