Hi Michael,
I don't know whether you will get this as your post was a while back.
However, what I can tell you is that the Cliff family around Wortley in Leeds have strong connections to Shropshire.My mother did resaearch a number of years ago and the trail definately led to Shropshire and also to London. The Cliffs in Leeds were an extremely wealthy family with extensive business interests.
The family is I believe very old and there are two versions of the family arms which both have the same crest.You should be able to look this up. If you are intersted I can give you more but I need to dig out all the stuff.
Wait to hearCheers Tim
