Nathan A. Shirley

Nathan A. Shirley (Monroe/Chickasaw Counties)

State Senate: 1874-1879

Also served as a constable of Chickasaw County. I have been unable to locate Shirley on a census thus far. He could be the Nathan Shirley who married a Mary Ware in Monroe County in 1876 and had children named Maggie (b. 1884) and Nathaniel (b. 1887).
