HENRY SHEA /JOHN/OHIO
Hi, I'm hoping that someone might be able to shed some light on this. My grandfather Henry Shay ( spelling is Shea on obit) who died at age 37 was the son of John Shay who is buried in Evergreen Cemetery outside of Jackson,Ohio. John was supposed to have been separated from his mother in New York never to see her again. On John's death certificate, it lists his father as Michael and that he was born in 1823 in Ireland. He married Nancy Jane Shaw Shay and had 14 children together. Mary Ellen 1859, Harriet R. 1861, Jennie 1863, John D 1865, William 1867, Euchal 1869, Henry 1871, Charlie 1873, Josie A 1875. Thomas 1876? died in Fancy,O, James 1879, Homer(L.B.) 1881, Elmer 1884, Edgar 1878, Herbert died 1944? m. May Nye. Am also looking for Thomas Shay son of Henry who was in Mansfield area around 1950?(Richland Co,Ohio) Thank you so much if you can help with this rather large puzzel! Judy
