Robert Shilyngford

Robert Shilyngford, or Shillenford (died c.1553) was Mayor of Dublin in 1534–35. Apart from his tenure of this office, he is mainly remembered as the first of the six husbands of Jenet Sarsfield. Jenet was only about seven when her future husband was elected Mayor of Dublin, so their marriage probably did not take place until the mid 1540s. The couple had one daughter, Katherine, who was Jenet's only surviving child. Katherine married Thomas Talbot of Dardistown Castle, County Meath, and had issue, including Jenet, who married Robert Barnewall, 7th Baron Trimlestown.
