From "The English Origins of Roger and Ann Shaw of Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Hampton, New Hampshire," NEHGR 158:309-316 (2004):
- [FN 1]Even James Savage erred by stating that Roger was before the General Court in 1636, which he was not, and by suggesting that Roger's daughter Deliverance married Abraham Tilton, when Roger had no daughter Deliverance and Abraham Tilton was actually Roger's second wife's son (James Savage, A Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England, 4 vols. [Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1860-62; repr. Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1965], 4:304, corrected by Walter Goodwin Davis, Massachusetts and Maine Families in the Ancestry of Walter Godwin Davis, 3 vols. [Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1996], 3:445-46).

- An early edition of the International Genealogical Index revealed that there were men named Roger Shaw in the area of Congleton, Cheshire. Four promising baptisms in nearby Gawsworth, Cheshire, 1626-1635, of children named Margaret, Mary, Ann and Joseph, all children of Roger Shaw (no mother listed) matched the names of Roger Shaw's children as given in published New England sources. No marriage of a Roger Shaw was found anywhere nearby.[8]
- [8] Chester Marriage Licenses 1606-1632 were examined, but no Roger Shaw was found. Searches of surrounding parishes were conducted in Salt Lake City at the Family History Library and in London at the Society of Genealogists and in Cheshire by various genealogists, but no Shaw marriages were found...
- The following Shaw entries were abstracted from the original Gawsworth Parish Registers and compared to the transcript done by R. Dickinson at the Society of Genealogists:
- Baptisms:
- 20 Sep 1583 - Rodger, son of Roger Shawe
- 1 Mar 1584/5 - Elizabeth dau of Roger Shawe
- 3 Nov 1589 - William son of Roger Shaw of Mutlowe
- 24 Jul 1615 - Ann fila de Ed. Shawe co(n)cionat(or)
- 4 Jul 1626 - Margret fila de Rogi Shaw
- 8 Nov 1629 - Mary fila de Rogeri Shaw
- 22 Apr 1632 - Anna fila de Rogeri Shawe de Multoe
- 12 Nov 1635 - Josephus filius de Rogeri Shaw
- 22 Mar 1636/7 - Ann dau of Randall Shawe de North Road
- 21 Mar 1640/1 - William son of Randle Shaw de North Road
...
- Returning to the four baptisms of the children of Roger Shaw of Gawsworth, each was compared with those of Roger Shaw the immigrant and found to be a god match. Roger Shaw's 1660 will names sons Joseph and Benjamin (under 21) and daughters Margaret Ward, Ann Fogg, Hester, and Marie (under 21). This order agrees with the Gawswroth baptisms (daughter Mary baptized in 1629 died in 1640 and a younger Mary was born in 1645, as will be seen). In addition, Margaret, Ann, and Joseph are all appropriately in their early to mid-twenties when married in New England.

::[8] Chester Marriage Licneses 1606-1632 were examined, but no Roger Shaw was found. Searches of surrounding parishes were conducted in Salt Lake City at the Family History Library and in London at the Society of Genealogists and in Cheshire by various genealogists, but no Shaw marriages were found: Bosley 1615-1627; Goostrey 1613-1627; Barthomley; Macclesfield St. Michael Christ Church; Warminghmam; Church Lawton; Astbury 1615-1630; Prestbury 1610-1630; Swettenham 1609-1630 [mostly illegible, nothing found]; Church Hulme 1613-1627 [1623 illeigible]; and Pulford 1602-1627. Shaw marriages were found in the following parishes, but no possible marriage for the immigrant Roger Shaw: Gawsworth 1557-1635; Sandbach; Brereton Cum Smethwich 1613-1627; Knutsford 1612-1627; and Marton 1613-1627.
