  • Notes 
    • According to a family tree at Rootsweb's Worldconnect (source Kenneth Linwood Shaw, III), Dinah Smith married three times, to: a Mr. Solomon, by whom she had a daughter Sarah b1795; Anthony Shaw IV (as his third wife) by whom she had eleven children born in New York State between the years 1798 and 1815; and Uriah Goodrich whom she married in 1832.

      According to notes at this site, Dinah's second husband was the same Anthony Shaw who had married her aunt Susannah Remington. This has been confirmed in an email from Sherry Kosciuch.

      Anthony Shaw's will mentions "his wife's daughter Sarah Solomon"; there is no indication as to whether this is her maiden name or her married name.

      In the 1850 Federal Census, Dinah Goodridge, age 80 RI, is living at Alfred, Allegany Co., NY. She is with the Wescott family. There are several Shaw families nearby.
