John Shurley

John Shurley

Sir John Shurley (d. August 3, 1527) was an English noble who held the financial office of Coffer to the King during the reign of Henry VIII. He was married twice—to Parnell Grandford and then Margery Goring.

The surname seems to have come from Shurley Manor, which was located in Herefordshire, and the surname is commonly spelled "Shirley" today.

Eventually the Shurley family became chief residents of Isfield and Sir John and many of his family are buried at Isfield Church. The inscription over his tomb describes Sir John as "chef clerke of the kechen to our souayn kyng henry ye viii".
