  John Shirley
Anderson SC (continued) 
   
 

11 Robert Shirley born about 1788 Abbeville, SC; Robert lived in Abbeville Co SC in 1820, Fayette Co. AL in 1830, 1840, and 1850 census; and supposedly later in Mississippi.

Note: This family is impossble to find in all later census, for some reason (help!). But in the 1840 Fayette Co Al census, Robert (age 50-60) is oddly alone with his wife (age 40-50). Are these his children, or those of a relative?
