Individual Details

William Shircliffe

(1648 - Bef 1 Jul 1707)

Notes:
The earliest I can find for William making transactions as an adult is: 1) 1676, as mentioned in Edward Clarke's will; 2) 1677, as the Exec of John and Ann Sheircliffe; and 3) 1679 as member of the jury for inquisition into the estate of Robert Sheale . From this, I surmised he was born in the late 1640's or early 1650's. I did not find a deposition for him.
