January 2008 - Bill Shirley <yahoody77@adelphia.net>
Hi Ken
Back quite a few years ago I posted James Shirley's name on The
Shirley asso. web site. I got a reply from a man
named Carmen Glenn. He lived in Montreal, Canada And said that
we were related and that he was going to Mass. In the near future
and that he would stop by my house on the way and bring me a
copy of the info he had.
One day he stopped In and brought me the copy of a hand written
book that contained a huge amount of family info.
He also brought me a hand written letter from his grandmother
that describes James as a small quiet man often seen reading
the bible. Apparently in Ireland he had studied to be a minister.
She also described Nancy Berry Doloway as a feisty lady of Portuguese
decent.This lady also states that James did not come here alone,
That a sister Anne Shirley and at least one brother had also
came over. Anne married a man named a man named Michael Cahill
and that they had settled in Ottawa.
Later on a lady named Donna Wagner contacted me and said that
we were related that her mother was a Shirley and she was related
through William Shirley, James' brother. She said that she had
a lot of info on that part of the family,and she sent it to me.
She had more info on Anne and Michael Cahill. how that they had
gotten a land grant for having done favors for the king ect.
She also had the father's name as Thomas She said that she hadn't
really found anything linking Margaret Butler being linked to
the Duke of Ormond, but she was still looking. { I don't believe
that she ever will, The dates didn't look right to me.} But she
did have pretty good references for the rest of the family. I
don't know if you have noticed yet, but this family does not
have a large imagination when it comes to names, same names every
generation.
When I get my scanner fixed I will try to send you a copy of
that letter I am sure you would find it interesting. I also have
some pictures in my FTM program that I will try to send if I
can figure out how.
Take care;
Bill Shirley
