Explore the history of George Shaw through portraits and information about his life, work, family, and love for libraries that resulted in the construction of our beloved building. This display showcases items used by the Shaw family, including a hand-stitched quilt made by George Shaw's wife, Mary Ross Shaw, and a wedding dress worn by Sarah Bell Shaw. 


Thank you to all the descendants of the Shaw family for your donations and support.
