"Simonne Mathieu[a] (French pronunciation: [simɔn matjø] née Passemard;)[1] (31 January 1908 – 7 January 1980) was a tennis player from France, born in Neuilly-sur-Seine, Hauts-de-Seine, who was active in the 1930s. She won the French Championships singles title in 1938 and 1939.
During World War II, she created and led the Corps of French Volunteers in the Free French Forces, the first female unit in the military history of France.”

The NIAH says: Connections with the Shirley family, who were responsible for the development of the town in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, add to its historical significance.
