Who Is The Old Guy?

This is Edward Payson Shaw, my Great Great Grandfather, a person who has always inspired me. He was hard working and owned his first business at the young age of 18. He Edward Payson Shawwent on to own many other businesses before owning several electric trolley lines in northeastern Massachusetts.

He prospered by accomplishing tasks for his customers. We share the same middle name and the same ideal of customer service.

I've been doing family research and genealogy since I was a teenager, so you will see how I have kept a historical connection with many of my web design and web hosting clients.

Always keeping one eye on the past and the other on the future.
