Mr. Shaw was born in Cataragus county, New York, May 30, 1848. His father, Angeloah Shaw, was born of American stock, and a farmer by trade. He was an early settler in Nebraska, coming in 1876 with his family. Mr Shaw possessed 640 acres on Shigle Creek. When he first arrived he had less than one dollar and was forced to work to make a living during the hard times. He was handicapped by the dry years and many other discouraging circumstances, but he persevered and won success, well satisfied with the result of his hard labors and rough pioneer experiences. On December 24, 1872, he married Harriet E. Baker. They had twelve children, of whom the following survived: Estella, married G. Franklin Pattan; Maggie, married Fred Ogden; Albert, married Bertha Schwartz; Elsie, married William Whitley and Orvil, married Rubie Rose.
