Note:
Sir Sewallis (born ca. 1043, died 1085) held lands in Ettington, Warwickshire. He was created a Baron by, then Duke, William, in Normandy and followed William in the conquest of England in 1066. He was succeeded by his only child, Fulcher.
The Shirley family had its origin with the Norman invasion by William, Duke of Normandy. Sir Sewallis was a follower of William from Normandy (William the Conqueror) and was the first recorded Shirley ancestor.
According to ?Encyclopedia of Heraldry? by John Burke: ?Shirleys of Derby, Stanton, Harold, County Leuhester, and Chartley, County Stafford, derives from Sewallis de Ettington who lived in the time Edward the Confessor?. Dugdale says the name was of old English stock as Lord of Ettington under the name ?Henry de Ferrers?, the first recorded ancestor of the oldest knightly family of Warwick.
The family name of Shirley appears to have been taken up in 1138 at the direction of King Stephen and derived from the ?Manor of Shirley? in Derbyshire.
