Nancy, There were many Guinns in Mo., Saline Co. and Cedar Co. My grtgrtgranfather's brother, Samuel Andrew Shaw, whose mother was Alice Althea Gwinn Shaw, was living with a Wm. Guinn in the 1850 Cedar Co. census. I don't know if S. A. Shaw and Wm. Guinn are related, but am assuming the coincidence to great. I have been told Wm. died at the Battle of Lexington, Mo., where his body was interred in the breastworks there. S. A. Shaw lived at the Confederate Soldier's Home from 1890 until his death in 1914.
