THANKS DOROTHY FOR YOUR RESPONSE. THE DATES THAT WE ARE PROBABLY LOOKING FOR WOULD MEAN THAT KENTUCKYAND WEST VIRGINIA AT THAT TIME WOULD HAVE BEEN VIRGINIA. ALL I KNOW ABOUT MY GGGGRANDMOTHER WAS SHE LIVED IN FAUQUIER COUNTY VIRGINIA AND SHE MARRIED A BURKE FROM THAT AREA. I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY WENT FROM THERE. THE BURKE'S CAME TO WEST VIRGINIA AND SETTLED, BUT I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND MUCH ON THE SHAW'S. PLEASE KEEP IN TOUCH IF YOU THINK YOU MAY HAVE SOMETHING AND I WILL DO THE SAME. AGAIN THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK IN YOUR SEARCH.
