Renshaw Family Genealogy Forum
  
I am descended from William D. Renshaw, brother of Robert Holdane Renshaw, and many of Robert's children with his first wife, Nancy Jane Stowell, moved to the Spokane WA area and Nez Perce County, ID. Robert Jr was among the leading merchants of eastern Nez perces County, and was partner (with half-brother Henry S.) in the firm Renshaw Brothers & Johnson, doing general merchandise business in Kamiah, also handling a livery stable. On 28 Feb 1884 in Modoc Co CA Robert Jr. married Laura Thacker. William Baxter Renshaw became a paint & oil man in Spokane, and was onthe 1880 WA census for Colfax CO. John Boyd Renshaw became a large stockman in Stevens Co, WA, and was on the 1880 census for Spokane Co. Harvey H. Renshaw became a farmer on Camas Prairie. Julia Belle Renshaw married o 11 Dec 1878 in Whitman Co Emera Kinnear (not sure about the spelling of his last name), a merchant in Rossland, BC.
Father of both William D. and Robert H. Renshaw was Moses Milton Renshaw, about whose ancestry many Renshaws are unsure about.
