Floyd,
I got the same on the census as Bonz did with your Shaw family. I think this is your family. The Clutters were living very close by, Richhill Twp. and Jackson Twp. are close. Check out the map on:

As far as the Gilbert family:

SS death records: Charles Gilbert- born January 25, 1876 in New Jersey- died Nov. 1967
SS # 194-26-4149
Last residence, Pittsburgh, PA

1930 Census District 308-Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., PA Virginia St.

Gilbert, Charles W. age 54 b. NJ Head
Gilbert, Rosia F. age 59 b. Eng Wife Came to America in 1909
Gilbert, Helen N. age 17 b. PA Daughter
Whitmore, Gladis age 21 b. PA Daughter
Gilbert, Albert age 1 b. PA Son

1920 Census ED#627 Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., PA Virginia St.

Gilbert, Charles W. age 42 b. NJ Worked for Coal Company
Gilbert, Rosa age 49 b. Eng
Gilbert, Ralph age 15 b. PA son
Gilbert, Gertrude age 13 b. PA daughter
Gilbert, Gladis age 12 b. PA daughter
Gilbert, Florence age 8 b. PA daughter
Gilbert, Helen age 7 b. PA daughter

Hope this helps a little. I couldn't find him in the 1880 census, perhaps he was still in New Jersey with his parents. I don't understand the "Whitmore" name for Gladis in 1930. Maybe Albert is the son of Gladis and she had married a Whitmore. Rosa is too old to have a 1 year old son.

Isaac Shaw was born in unknown area of PA July 31, 1850. I do not know
where. (but I got one lead as a reply from one of you already) He
married Laney Anne Clutter (1854-1931) and they lived in Greene County.
I can find him in the 1880 census living with wife and children in
Greene County. Can't find him in 1850, 1860, 1870 - can you? He was
NOT
in Greene County in 1850, 1860, 1870 - that I have managed to search
myself. He died September 3, 1907, but I need nothing about his adult
life, just his origins.

Charles Wesley Gilbert was born in regions unknown in USA in 1876. He
supposedly was then raised as a child in California, PA by 2 red-headed
aunts for reasons unknown to me. I have no way of verifying this. He
married Rosa Frances Knight (1870-1959) and they lived in the city of
Pittsburgh where they were officers in the Salvation Army. He died
1967. I do not need any info about his adult life, marriage, it is his
origins only I search.
