A connection between Stephen Shirley,
perfumer of London (shown below), and Rev Thomas Shirley, baptist
minister of Sevenoaks Kent has now been proven. Stephen's daughter
Emily (chr as Sarah) married Alfred Bilton and his Will stated
that Emily was the neice of Rev Thomas Shirley - thus Stephen
Shirley and Rev Thomas Shirley were brothers. Rev Thomas Shirley
died in Sevenoaks Kent in 1858 and Stephen Shirley retired to
Sevenoaks, appearing in the census there in 1861. Interestingly,
Thomas Shirley's house servant, Mary Ann Harper/Hopper, who appears
in his 1841 and 1851 household, next appears in the household
of Stephen Shirley in 1861. Stephen Shirley was born in Little
London, Brill Buckinghamshire (according to census) and at least
one source claims Rev Thomas Shirley was also born at nearby
Brill.

Rev. Thomas Shirley, Baptist Minister at Sevenoaks, Kent
(British Museum)
Obituary of the Rev. Thomas Shirley, Late of Sevenoaks
- The Rev Thomas Shirley for nearly fifty years the paster an
dminister of the church and congregation at Sevenoaks was born
at Brill in Buckinghamshire on 10th March 1775. His parents were
respectable and moral and attended the parish church with their
children. Thomas was sent when a youth to Bermondsey to learn
the wool trade. At the age of sixteen he had a severe affliction
and was confined to his bed with a bad leg. At this time he was
the subject of serious reflections on his condition as a fallen
sinner....He attended chiefly the ministry of the Rev J C Mason
son of the author of "The Spiritual Treasury" and occassionally
went to hear Mr Romaine at St Ann's Blackfriars... At length
attended the ministry of Mr Hemsworth at the Paragon Chapel Bermondsey
New Road....By invitation of the church (at Sevenoaks) he engaged
in the stated ministration of the word in that place in April
1808, and on August 1 1810 he was publicly ordained to the pastorate....His
excellent companion, with whom he was united in June 1802....On
the morning, his beloved companion was seized with pain in the
arm. She went down- the vital spark was gone and our dear friend
was called to give up the desier of his eyes with this sudden
stroke. (Ed: Note, Bessell's Green Bapt cemetery says wife Susanna
died in 1850)....He resigned the pastorate in August 1852...On
Friday Nov 26 (Ed: 1858), the mortal remains of Mr Shirley were
conveyed to the vault at Bessels Green to be laid with those
of hhis late dear companion...- The Primitive Church (or Baptist

1(ii). Stephen Shirley, perfumer
of London born about
1790 in Little London, Brill Buckinghamshire (according to census)
Perfumer of Princess Street, Marylebone; Lived at Princess Street,
St Marylebone Middlesex in 1841 census, age 45 (b 1796) Lived
St Marylebone Middlesex in 1851 census, age 58 born Brill Bucks,
occupation perfurmer; He retired to Sevenoaks Kent; Lived Sevenoaks
Kent in 1861 census, age 68 (born 1793) at Little London Bucks,
widower, retired, lived alone but with a servant named Mary Harper;
Again, the same in 1871 census, age 78, born Little London Bucks;
He lived Sevenoaks in 1881 census, age 80, widower, born Brill
Bucks, occupation retired perfumer. He lived alone but with a
servant named Jane Glover. Stephen lived to be 101 years old,
died 19 July 1891 at Sevenoaks Kent;
London St James Gazette Wednesday, December 30, 1891 -
Mr. Stephen Shirley died on the 20th of this month at Sevenoaks,
the certificate of death recording his precise age as being 101
years and 363 days. He retained his faculties until almost the
last moments of his life.
The Morning Post (London) July 22, 1891 - Mr. Stephen Shirley,
an inhabitant of St. John's-hill, Sevenoaks, died on Monday afternoon,
after a short illness, at the ago of 102. He leaves a daughter
7[ ] years of age, and a son of about 70. Mr. Shirley, who retained
his faculties until almost the last moments of his life, was brother to the late Mr. Thomas Shirley,
who for several years was pastor of the Sevenoaks Baptist Church.
1891 Will of Stephen Shirley - 11 August - Administration
of the personal estate of Stephen Shirley late of St John's in
the parish of Sevenoaks in the co of Kent widower who died 19
July 1891 at St John's was granted at the principal registry
to Stephen Shirley of 72 Earl Street Edgware Road in the co of
Middlesex gentleman and son of the Next of Kin. Personal Estate
L492 4s 4d
Email 2015 - Emily/Sarah (let's call her Sarah) was born
22.05.1831 in Middlesex, but she was not baptized until 21.05.1845
at St. Mary, Bryanston Square. She was the 7th of nine children
born between 1816 and 1837 to Stephen Shirley, perfumer of 22,
Princess Street, Marylebone, and Margaret Maitland, the daughter
of another perfumer of Golden Square, Soho (her maternal grandfather
was yet another perfumer, George Watt of Hanover Square - they
seem to have been very clannish, these perfumers). Stephen Shirley
and Margaret Maitland married 04.03.1815 at St. James, Westminster.
Stephen retired to Sevenoaks Kent and lived to be 100 years old
(pretty unusual in those days. There was a mishap when he was
due to be buried in 1891 - the shaft of the cart carrying his
coffin broke and the coffin thrown off. Fortunately, it was still
empty.). Stephen was born in Oakley, Bucks in 1790 (Brill and
Oakley are only a mile or two apart). His older brother Thomas
was a Baptist Minister in Sevenoaks for fifty years. He was mentioned
in my gg uncle Alfred Bilton's Will. So far, I am sure that I
have my facts right. Stephen may have been the son of another
Stephen Shirley of Oakley, born 1755 who, in turn, may have been
the son of Michael Shirley, who married Sarah Lovett in Nottingham
in 1748, but that is a bit speculative. There seem to have been
a lot of Shirleys farming in that part of Bucks, so you may well
have a member who is descended from one of them.My main interest
is not really in the earlier Shirleys (although it would be fun
if they were connected to the famous Admiral). Most of all, I
would like to know more about Stephen Shirley, the perfumer,
and his family and, if possible, make contact with a descendant.
married Margaret Maitland on 4 March 1815 at St James
Westminster, daughter of a London perfumer of Golden Sq Soho,
and grandaughter of perfumer George Watt of Hanover Sq London;
she was age 45 in 1841 census; She died prior to 1851 census
when her husband was listed as a widower.

chr years later on 21 May 1845 at St Mary Bryanston Square, age

later Alfred Bilton, solicitor of Brixton Surrey
Email 2015 - I have been researching the Right Rev Samuel
Hinds, Bishop of Norwich from 1849 to 1857. He married (secretly)
his cook, who was baptized Sarah Shirley but always called herself
Emily. The resulting scandal provoked his resignation. Emily
was the daughter of Stephen Shirley, a perfumer of Marylebone,
Middlesex. After the Bishop died in 1872, Emily married my great
grand uncle Alfred Bilton, a solicitor of Brixton, Surrey.
1902 Will of Alfred Bilton - "....I bequeath to louisa
