Abstracted from: - BEATRICE WEEKLY EXPRESS--Beatrice, Ne. July 15, 1897

Forty years ago July 6, S. P. SHAW with his five sons, Egbert, J. B. , W. H. , James I. and S. V. SHAW and two sons-in-law, James and W. W. SILVERNAIL, with their wives and children arrived on the Nemaha from their former home in Wisconsin, determined to make a home for themselves in this then unsettled territory. There were then only two houses in Adams township or for that matter in the six township of Adams, Nemaha, Highland, Holt, Hanover and Hooker. These were the log houses of John O. ADAMS and John STAFFORD. S. P. SHAW died in 1863 and his widow in 1886; W. H. was killed in the war and Egbert died in 1895. The other members of the colony all live in Adams except James SILVERNAIL and wife, who live in Beatrice. These survivors have seen wonderful changes in this country in these two score years, changes little dreamed of by them and not thought of by people in the east. The nearest post office then was Nebraska City and the nearest mill in Iowa some twenty or thirty miles further, hence letters from the east were infrequent and the fashionable dish was hominy or hulled corn, wheat breat being unknown and corn meal so hard to get that corn bread was a luxury. And yet these people enjoyed life even better than some enjoy it now.
