Shirley: Shirley of Ettington/Ettendon, Shirley of Preston, Shirley of Shirley, Shirley of Staunton/Stanton, Shirley of West Grinstead, Shirley of Westneston Wiston
Sh30. Sasuallo or Sewallus of Ettington, etc. b c 1025 d c 1085
Sh29 Fulcher of Ettington, etc. b c 1060 d c 1105
Sh28-1 Henry ancestor of Shirley of Ireton and families named Ireton
Sh28 Sewallis of Shirley b c 1080 d c 1129 Sewallis and the next few generations may well have been known as 'de Ettington' rather than 'de Shirley'.
m Matilda dau of Ridel of Halaughton
Sh27 Henry de Shirley b c 1110 d c 1165
m Joanna dau of John de Clinton of Essex
Sh26 Sewallis de Shirley b c 1140 a 1167
m Isabel Meynell dau of Robert Meynell of Langley Meynell
Visitation adds 2 intervening generations here: Henry then Sewall, apparently younger son of Henry the other son being another Henry and father of the following, but greater span between the guesstimated births indicate the existance of (an) intermediate generation(s).
Sh25 Sir James de Shirley and Ettington b c 1240 d c1278

Sh24 Sir Ralph de Shirley, Sheriff of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire b c 1270 d 1327
m Margaret dau of Walter de Waldeshief of Fairfield
Sh23 Sir Thomas Shirley b c 1310 br>m Isabel Basset sister of Ralph Basset, Lord of Drayton, but perhaps Meynell
Sh22 Sir Hugh Shirley d Shrewsbury b c 1345 a 1403, grand falconer
m Beatrix de Braose sister of John de Braose of West Neston d Shrewsbury b c 1330 a 1403, grand falconer
Sh21 Sir Hugh Shirley d Shrewsbury b c 1370 a 1403, grand falconer, Sheriff of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire b c 1370 a 1422
m1 Joan Basset b c ?1391 dau of->
Basset 4 shows her marriage to son Ralph. As the complier of the Shirley pedigree is more likely to have know which Shirley Joan married, but this does have to b checked. The date given for father's marriage favors guesstimating Hugh's to have been no earlier than 1370.

Sh19. Ralph Shirley of Westneston Wiston b c 1440 continued above Visitation shows this Ralph as married also to Elizabeth, dau of Thomas Blount, with a note apparently provided The Harleian's Society's editor saying that she was "added, but in a like hand". On the basis that this looks like a repetition of his mother whose marriage to his father is mentioned in BP1934 we ignore this. However,.
