My maiden name was Shaw and I'm,also,looking for SHAW ancestors who lived in the Coffeyville area around the same time period! I just posted a new query tonight! My Shaws (I'm told from a letter) ran a newpaper in the Coffeyville area (not sure what newspaper). They were part Indian (Cherokee). We have lost contact with these family ancestors! Have hit tons of brickwalls! Did your ancestors ever live in Missouri or Indiana? Are your Shaws part Indian? Wouldlove to exchange my SHAW research with you! My maiden name was Shaw, too.
