Shirley Partridge (formerly Shirley Renfrew, prior to marriage) is a main character from The Partridge Family. She is the mother of Keith, Laurie, Danny, Chris and Tracy. Her husband died suddenly a few months before her and her children started performing. Shirley's parents are Fred and Amanda Renfrew.

Personality
Shirley is a smart, caring, charismatic, talented and independent mother.

Looks
Shirley is medium height, very fit (considering she had five kids), has pale/ peachy skin, short blonde hair and has hazel eyes. She is often wearing nice shirts and slacks.

House
In an early episode the Partridges are shown to live in the same area as the houses in 'I dream of Jeanie' and 'Bewitched'. In Bewitched it is stated several times that the Stephens live at '1164 Morning Glory Circle' which leads people to the conclusion that the Partridges live in Morning Glory Circle.
