This is the third post of “Shipley sighted in Texas”.

Interestingly enough though, most Shipleys had not only settled on the East Coast, but also remained there. We know, as my husband owns four books of The Shipleys of Maryland (family history and genealogical research).

This was passed on to me by a German friend who lives in Mc Allen, Texas (thanks, Bea).

Another Shipley photo turned up on the internet, which I have just discovered on Facebook. No source was cited, but if I hear from the photographer, I’ll be sure to give due credit.

A friend of mine, afflicted with a severe aversion to bloggers, was gracious enough to let me publish this photo taken somewhere in Texas.

This is not an advertisement, and we are neither affiliated nor related with this business in any way. Not as of yet, anyway.

My husband showed me this photo, taken by one of his colleagues while on holiday in Delaware. Over the years I have seen a few items with our family name on it and now the time has come to start a collection.

This new category called Shipleys around the World could use your help. Please share your photos if you have spotted the Shipley name somewhere  in the form of a road sign, shop sign, etc. Just no gravestones, please. I have been to cemeteries because of genealogy research, and saw my family name quite often.

It would be nice to get a collection together, so I would appreciate your contributions (photo and location).
