The following from An Online History of Weddington Castle, Henry Cunliffe Shawe (1833 - 1911): "Shawe was married to Georgina Wilmot Shawe - second daughter of Sir William Nigel Gresley, of Netherseal Hall, Leicestershire - and had two sons (Henry Nigel Pole Shawe and Charles Shawe, an army captain) and two daughters - Edith Mary Shawe (who married Colonel Francis Capel Manley) and Eleanor Grace Shawe (who married Lt. Colonel Egerton Stanley Pipe Wolferston of the 1st Battalion, South Staffordshire Regiment).
Charles Shawe, who was born on 15th November 1878 at Weddington Castle, had a brief career in first class cricket playing for the 'HDG Leveson-Gower's XI'. His first class career it seems was limited to a single innings in 1919 with no runs, and two overs bowled at an average of 16 runs for no wicket. Charles was also a military man, associated with the Rifle Brigade (a precursor of the Royal Green Jackets).
Charles moved away from the area and died in 9 February 1951 at The Hermitage, Witham Friary, Frome, Somerset aged 72 years and 86 days."
relates to Capt C SHAWE who was served by Sydney as Manservant and Chauffeur. |
