NOTE: The old Typed Index records her name as Cooney Quirk alias Shimmin, but her maiden surname is clearly Quilliam, which is supported by other records. The person 
Cooney Shimmin is not supported by 50 previous years of Archdeacon Wills and presentments. (Possible confusion with will before this, Magraret Quay als Shimmin.)
