He married Clara Gnam on Aug 21, 1911 at Carroll, IA. After her death, he married Mrs Hazel Nockels on August 8, 1928 at Carroll. They were the parents of Roberta. March 21, 1938 - Carroll Daily Herald - Dr. W.M. Shirley, 57, prominent physician and surgeon of Carrroll for a quarter of a century was found dead at his office on North Main Street about 9 o'clock Sunday morning. His death followed a long period of ill health. For the last several years he had suffered from heart trouble and the attacks had recently occurred oftener and with more severity. His heart disease was aggrivated by pernicious anemia, with which he had been afflicted for more than 2 years. During the past month and particularly the last week, he had been suffering intensely. The body was taken Monday morning from the Huffman Funeral Home to the family home on North Adams Street, where it will rest until the services. Rites will be held at the Methodist church at 2:30 Tuesday afternoon, with the Rev. Claude R Cook officiating. Burial will be in the Carroll Cemetery. Dr Wayne M Shirley was born at Shoals, Indiana, Dec 3, 1880, a son of a physician. After attending the public schools at Shoals, he entered the University of Indiana at Bloomington, where he took his premedical work. He received his M.D. Degree at Rush Medical College, Chicago. Locating at Waterloo for the practice of his profession, he lived there for some time before coming to Carroll. While residing at Waterloo, he was married to Clara M Gnam on August 21, 1911. The ceremony took place at the home of the brides parents in Carroll. Dr and Mrs Shirley made their home in Waterloo until 1913, when they came to Carroll, where they were living when Mrs. Shirley died in 1921. Upon locating here, Dr Shirley bought the practice and office equipment of the late Dr A.L. Wright. He practiced in Dr Wrights former offices until last summer when the building in which he was located was rented to Montgomery Ward and Co. He then moved his office to a suite of rooms in an adjoing building. August 8, 1928 Dr Shirley was married at Carroll to Mrs. Hazel Nockels, widow of John Nockels of Carroll. To them was born one daughter, Roberta. They have lived at 726 North Adams Street since their marriage. With the exception of the time that he served as a captian in the Medical Corps of the US Army during the World War, Dr Shirley had been actively engaged in his profession in Carroll since coming here from Waterloo. He returned to Carroll immediately after receiving his honorable discharge at Camp Dodge. Prior to enlisting in the service, he was a member of the Carroll county Draft board and one of the examining physicians. Dr Shirley was a member of the State Medical Society. Surviving Dr Shirley are his wife and small daughter, Roberta, a step-son, Louis Nockels, and one sister, Mrs D.A. Rothrock of Bloomington, Indiana. Dr and Mrs. Rothrock will arrive here Monday evening. A brother, Harry Shirley, died about 2 years ago, and a step-daughter, Louise Nockels, met death in an automobile accident Nov 28, 1934 when she was a student at the University of Indiana.
