This Lineage Reviewed, Corrected, and Updated in August 2019
Daniel Shirley of Noke Oxfordshire -
named in the christening records of sons William and John Shirley

married Catherine Lester of Preston, Bucks. in 1799, Beckley, Oxfordshire. 

children:

1(i). William Shirley chr 24 May 1801 Noke, Oxfordshire, son of Daniel and Catherine Shirley

1(ii). John Shirley chr 19 August 1804 at Noke, Oxfordshire, son of Daniel and Catherine Shirley

Editor: The following William and John Shirley were previously shown as children of Daniel and Catherine Shirley of Noke Oxfordshire, above. I am increasingly uncomfortable with this 'connect the dots' link; The parishes of Noke and Deddington Oxfordshire are not close in distance.

The following Thomas Shirley seems to be a better parent candidate

Thomas Shirley born about 1781 in Oxfordshire; He was enumerated living at Deddington Oxfordshire in the 1841 census, age 60

Posted by Brian at DeddingtonHistory.uk "The earliest trace of the Shirley family, from which our line springs, appears to be at Great Barford, the first record at this Church being that of the baptism of Thomas Shirley, son of William and Ann in 1777....This same William and Ann had eight children, but the one we are most interested in is Thomas who appears to have moved to Hempton just prior to or at the time of his marriage to Ann French in 1803 at Deddington Church....Their first child was born in 1803. In 1807 there is a Shirley registered in Parish Records without a Christian name, shown as ‘Blank’. There were then further children, among whom were William (b. 1811) and John (b. 1806)."
