Hi
You have got back so much further than me re the Shergold family. I am descended from a Isaac Shergold (1700-1762), son Luke (1741-1787) who married Sarah Furnell in 1760 in Steeple Langford, Wiltshire. They had 6 children - Thomas, Sarah, John, Mary, Elizabeth & Rebecca.
Thomas Shergold (1761-1845) married Ann Cannings in 17876 and had 4 children - Elizabeth, James, Thomas & William.
Thomas Shergold (1798-1867) married Elizabeth Light in 1829 and had 2 children - Ann & Alfred.
William Shergold (1803-1841) married Elizabeth Newman in 1827 and had 6 children, one of which, George (1837-1913) is one of my descendants. He married Ann Shergold, his cousin, who is the daughter of Thomas, Wiliams's brother and Elizabeth Light.
George & Ann Shergold had 6 children - Frederick, Emmeline (my grandmother), James, George, Caroline, Eva.
All seemed to live around Maddington, Orcheston & Shrewton, finally Salisbury which are all places in Wiltshire. However there were a lot of Shergolds around in Wiltshire as you already know so lots of descendants all over the place.
Good luck.
