Yes. I inquired about William Duckworth Shelton (Duck Franklin). The Madison County, NC website mentions him so like you said it must be pretty much true. I am planning a trip to Madison County in the next couple of weeks to go see the graves of those Shelton's that were massacred during the Civil War. A movie was made about the Shelton Laurel Massacre but I can't seem to find a copy. Maybe they will have one there somewhere. My lines from Harlan county are related to the Brocks but only through marriage I think. I went to Clay County, KY last week and saw, for the first time, a part-time traffic light. LOL I couldn't help but think...now, if you need a light there at all then shouldn't it be on all the time? Stay well and if you need anything just let me know.
