I have the following Shirley ancestry on my mother's side and am keen to make contact with those of you who may have similar interest.

My GF, Alfred Shirley, was B 1893 in Ashton in Makerfield, Lancs and M in 1919 to Ellen Langton. He lived in Ashton and worked as a Coal Miner in the Wigan area. He also served in Lancs Fusilliers in WWI. He D in 1942 in Golborne, Lancs.

My GGF, Reuben Philip Shirley was B in 1849 in Kidlington, Oxford. He M in 1873 in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales to Jane Catherine Richards. JCR was B in 1850 in Uttoxeter, Staffs and D in 1913. Reuben was also a coal miner. They had children born in MT and Holywell in Wales. He was an active Trades Unionist and an early member of the Labour Party.

My GGGF I have not yet found but my GGGM was Alice Shirley B between 1826ish in Kidlngton. She died D in 1900.

My GGGGF was Thomas Shirley B1805 he M Rebeccca?

My GGGGGF was Thomas Shirley B1774 he M Elizabeth Eaton.

At the momet my primary interests are in the names of Shirley, Langton, Richards, Riley and Coffey.

If you know of any of these people or their family links I really look forward to hearing from you and would be happy to pass any information I have to you.
