Shirey, Frank and John--GA
Yesterday, mother (92) was talking about a trip she and some of the other Shirey's had made from Sand Mountain, AL to relatives in GA, about 1928, in the 1926 Ford which her mother, Minnie Aurora Shirey had bought new. The 5 that made the trip were (1) Mother, Omie Estelle Gann and (2) Opal Missouri Gann, both granddaughters of Joseph Washington Shirey; (3) Peter Early Shirey, brother to Joseph; (4) William James Shirey, brother to Joseph, and (5) Wills daughter, Appie Lou Shirey.
They visited John Nickolas Shirey and his wife, Mary, near Jackson, Butts County, GA.Nick being a brother to Joseph. Nick, Joseph, Early and Will were all sons of Newman and Susan Elivra (Lewis) Shirey.Also, visited the Lewis es who lived in the town of Jackson.Came back thru Newnan, GA, visited and toured old cemeteries.
While in the Jackson, GA area, they were visited by a Frank Shirey and his cousin John Shirey.Both were related to our Shirey's someway.Mother thinks Frank was probably in his early 30's which would make him borned in the mid to late 1890s.
I suspect Frank and John were sons/grandsons of Newman's brothers.Can anyone help with Newman's Siblings families and tie these people together??
Thanks,Toby
