Ella Esther McCommons, daughter of Stanhope and Julia Anne McCommons, was born in Illinois Nov 16, 1865. When just a child she came with her parents to Missouri, living a short time in St. Clair County. From there they came to Miller County, living just north of what is now the City of Eldon. They lived there until 1871 when the family moved to a farm just across the river from Tuscumbia. She was married to Alexander McClain Jan. 5, 1876, and to this union eleven children were born, all of whom are still living-Mrs. May Coburn, San Diego, Calif.; Wm. C. McClain, Brumley, Mo.; Chas. C. McClain, Barnsdall, Okla.; Mrs. Lena Keeth, Hominy, Okla.; L.T. McClain, Shirley, Ark.; J. Milton McClain, Enid, Okla.; Mrs. Elsie Moles, Ralston, Okla.; Mrs. Eunice Goodhue, Kansas City, Mo.; Mrs. Alice Null, St. Louis, Mo.; Mrs. Bernice Griffith, Buckley, Ill.; Mrs. Ruby Hendrix, Brumley. She is survived by twenty-five grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. She is also survived by three sisters-Mrs. Julia Wilson, Perckins, Okla.; Mrs. Ida R. Hauenstein, Tuscumbia; Mrs. Rosa Capps Hopkins, Iberia, Mo., and one brother-J.L. McCommons, Ulman, Mo. The deceased has been a member of the Baptist Church from girlhood. Her life was an example of love and devotion to her family and neighbors. She helped to raise and sent to school Carl and Elmer Pepmiller, sons of a deceased neighbor. She also principally raised and educated the following grandchildren: Ruby Simpson, Ardis, Bonnie, Beryl and Leland McClain. At the time of her death she had with her three grandchildren-Lowell, Goldie and Gladys McClain, who were attending school at Brumley. Her busy, cheerful life will be a sweet memory to all her relatives and friends. Funeral services were conducted at the church at the Gott Cemetery Sunday afternoon by Rev. Zumwalt, pastor of the Iberia Baptist Church. Interment was in the Gott Cemetery where her father and mother were buried many years ago.

I also checked my birth and death record books as well. Peggy Hake with the Miller County Historical Society in Tuscumbia has done a lot of Shelton research. Did you try her? There was an Edward F. and Clarissa A. (Lawson) Shelton that had a son about the right age for James. Rebecca was living with a John Williams family in 1900. She was listed as a servant with her son Edward. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi Susan, I am a Shelton researcher whose ancestors were from Miller Co. Can you give me just a little more info and I will try and help you. There are many many James Sheltons from Miller County. I read the marriage license where they got married in 1897 and both were over 21 years old. Is Jobe a first or last name? Hamon Shelton had a son by the name of James. Hamon's wife was a Williams. So this could be a clue. I have this James as dying in 1903. On the 1900 census when Rebecca is living with John Williams it does not show that she was a widow but married. James could have been away. Where did Rebecca die? Any clues could help us find him. Will be willing to try to help you. -- Wilma Shelton Easley In a message dated 12/10/2009 5:14:36 P.M.

I see on ancestry you have quite a lot on Rebecca Hughes - this is all I have on shelton - but it doesn't look like james a shelton was from miller county....maybe camden county roots web can help - a good many of the shelton's were from hawkeye, Pulaski County - why don't you try there? ----- Original Message ----- From: <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> To: <MOMILLER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 09, 2009 11:32 PM Subject: Re: [MOMILLER] Miller County Missouri Tombstone Inscriptions andMarriage Books > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Author: susanklaers > Surnames: > Classification: queries > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.missouri.counties.miller/3441.4/mb.ashx > > Message Board Post: > > Hi, I am hoping that you can help me.

And I would of course be thrilled if anyone had photots of any of these persons which they could post directly to Find A Grave or else email to me so I could post them. My email address is "tommywnelson@hotmail.com". And I am curious as to why I am unable to find Ellen's death certificate online. She died in 1939, well before the current 1958 cutoff year.
