Darbishire family.

In 1885, Anne Steele Shelby, daughter of Isaac Shelby III, married Godfrey Darbishire of Manchester, England, the son of Robert Dukinfield Darbishire, a prominent attorney and philanthropist. Godfrey died in 1889, and Anne moved to England with her son, Robert Shelby Darbishire, to live with her late husband's family. Robert later attended Rugby and Balliol College, Oxford. At Balliol, he met and became friends with Arnold Toynbee, later to be famous as a historian. Anne and Robert returned to Kentucky in 1910, but Robert returned often to Europe, serving with the Near East Relief Expedition in 1919-1921, and teaching in Athens from 1926-1929. He married Ruth Whiting in 1920.
