Question: Who knows about the shaw family from clinton kentucky!?
Who has information on ella shaw from clinton kentucky born in and around 1856!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I'm not seeing any Ella Shaw from Clinton County, KY!.!.!. OR from Clinton, Hickman County, KY!.

In the Family Trees online, I'm finding only one Ella Shaw, is it possible this could be her!?:

Name: Ella Mae Shaw
Birth: 27 Feb 1855 - Arkansas
Parents: Lorenzo Dow Shaw, Julia Ann Barnet
Spouse: John Willoughby (married in 1884 in Bourbon, KY; lived in Bourbon and Montgomery Counties in 1900 and 1910, respectively)

Could you please provide another morsel or two of information so we can better help you!?

edit- Thanks for providing more details!. I'm not having any luck finding an Ella Shaw born in KY around the mid-1800's, do you have confirmation that Shaw was indeed her maiden name!?

I believe I've found her with Daniel, Ernest, and Hosea in 1900:

if Terry has the right Ella!.!. this seems to be the family in 1880, and perhaps your Ella is actually Sophrona E!. Shaw
seems this family went to Arkansas for a few years, then back to Ky but in Boone county!.
