I was able to contact the people at the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church and they have confirmed that Peter Shiry and Lidia Bennet were members there during the late 1830's. For what it's worth, a joint congregation of Lutheran and German Reformed existed from 1814-1857.

The only other Shirer that showed up in their records during that time frame was a Jacob Shirer that communed 10 April, 1842.

Thanks for the help.
