- Excerpt from "From This Year Hence - A History of the Township of Toronto Gore" - Pg 112 -
"In 1827, Mr Robert Shaw and his wife, Alice Lockhart, left Sligo, Ireland, and set out to find a home in the New World. They settled first in New York State, and lived there for three years. While here, in 1828, a son, James, was born. In 1830, the family decided to leave the United States and come to Canada. They arrived in Ontario [Upper Canada] and settled on Lot 14, Concession 8, Toronto Gore Township. Three other children were born in Canada: Samuel, Eliza and Margaret.
In 1852, [son] James Shaw married Jane Shaw ... Samuel married Ann Hunter, Eliza became the bride of William Taylor and Margaret married Thomas Beamish [she married James, the son of Thomas]."
- Death Date - Headstone says 1880 but Death Register says 1881. He and Alice are listed in the 1881 Census.
